Cardiff City FC Community Foundation receives generous donation from The Persimmon Foundation
Supporting our work in health, education, and social inclusion in Cardiff and the wider South East Wales region
28 March 2022
On Sunday 27th March, a group of Cardiff City supporters ran over 13 miles in the Cardiff Half Marathon to raise vital funds for Cardiff City FC Foundation.
A huge thank you to everyone who signed up to represent us, we’re so grateful for your support.
So far, our runners have raised a remarkable £3,100 that will go towards supporting children, young people and families across South Wales achieve their full potential.
This was the first time that Cardiff City’s official mascot Bartley Bluebird ran on behalf of the Foundation, completing the race in just over two and a half hours.
