Welcome to the Finish Line Fund
Finish Line Fund was established in 2014, following the tragic passing of Nick Palmer of Flyers Southend Running Group, at the Southend Half Marathon.
We became a registered charity in 2018 ( charity number 1179170 ) with our objectives being:- The preservation and protection of good health for the public benefit in East Essex, United Kingdom in particular but not exclusively by:
