Vhi Staff Volunteer Day at Ballincollig

David Gillick and Vhi staff volunteers join Ballincollig parkrun

On Saturday 20 May, Vhi staff volunteered at Ballincollig parkrun where they were joined by Vhi ambassador and former Olympian David Gillick!


There was great enthusiasm from the 257 parkrunners and 9 Vhi staff volunteers in attendance!

 

David Gillick did some warm-up exercises ahead to ensure that everyone was raring to go, and all participants were treated to healthy snacks and drinks which kept them fuelled for the morning. The Vhi volunteers were on hand for extra motivation along the course!
