We are huge supporters of This Girl Can's "Let's Lift The Curfew" campaign which started in 2023 - it's a national movement from This Girl Can aiming to end the curfew imposed on women by safety fears during darker nights. In 2024 we were invited to launch the Manchester event and led a guided run around the city centre - lots of the runners that came along told us how vulnerable or unsafe they felt during darker nights and how that fear impacted their usual exercise routine.
At MileShyClub we believe every woman has the right to feel safe to exercise at any time of the day or night - that's why this year MileShyClub are inviting any new lone female runners to come and join us throughout the campaign to experience how running with a club can make exercising after dark feel so much safer. The campaign starts week commencing 26th October when the clocks go back. MileShyClub is known for being a supportive and inclusive running club that welcomes everyone - when we say "No One Gets Left Behind" we really mean it.
