Vital Energi Supports Local Community with Bolton Community 10K

Bolton Wanderers in the Community invited Ashley, Sarah and Francesca from Vital Energi pitch side to mark their headline sponsorship for the Bolton Community 10K and Family 2k for 13^th April 2025. Running for the second year, the Bolton Community 10K and the introduction of the Family 2K for 2025 bring together people from across the North West promoting togetherness and supporting local charities across the region.

Vital Energi have a continued commitment to delivering value that goes beyond the implementation of their low carbon solutions. Already on board as a Community Partner of the charity the new sponsorship deal furthers their work towards making an impact on the lives of residents across Bolton.

Ashley Walsh, Managing Director at Vital Energi, reflected on the partnership “We are thrilled to be sponsoring the Bolton Community 10k and Bolton Family 2k runs, supporting Bolton Wanderers in the Community and the local area through funds raised from these events. Our Vital Run Club members had a great time participating in last year’s 10k, and we’re hopeful that even more will lace up their running shoes and join us for this year’s events.

Supporting local communities, like Bolton Wanderers in the Community, is a core value of ours, whether it’s near our offices, projects or the towns and cities our teams call home. We aim to create a positive and lasting impact, not just through our work, but by actively engaging with and contributing to these communities to help make a real difference. We’re really looking forward to the big day and can’t wait to cheer on all the runners!”

The Bolton Community 10k returns with its closed road route starting and finishing at the Toughsheet Community Stadium. Participants are encouraged to walk, jog or run promoting positive activity in our community through an organised event.  The introduction of the Bolton Family 2K for 2025 expands the charity’s aim in supporting our community to be more active aligning with Bolton Council’s ‘Let’s Keep Bolton Moving’ campaign and Greater Manchester’s ‘Active Lives’ mission. Whether participants are running for their own personal goals or to raise funds for causes close to their heart, we encourage all to get involved.

Ben Lawton, BWitC Deputy CEO, stated “The continued partnership with organisations such as Vital Energi help our charity to support residents across our town. Running events like the Bolton Community 10K helps the charity support smaller charities and organisations in raising vital funds for their work whilst the introduction of the Family 2K for 2025 opens these opportunities for fundraising to schools and grass roots teams.”
