Cookes Furniture ready for 40th Fun Run Celebrations

June 2nd, 2023

Cookes Furniture, main sponsor of the Royal Sutton Fun Run, will have the largest contingent of family, friends, and work colleagues in Sutton Coldfield town centre and around the course this Sunday [4th June].

They have one of the largest teams with over 60 directors, staff, family, and friends participating and another large contingent at the finish line ready to present the Cookes Furniture 40th Royal Sutton Fun Run commemorative medal to all finishers, including 70 dogs who’ve been registered this year.

Tracey Spare, Fun Run Event Director said: “You could not wish for a better commercial partner than Cookes Furniture. They’ve supported the Fun Run for over thirty years with help and support across all aspects of the event. I think it’s safe to say that without their support the Fun Run would not still be etched on the annual Sutton Coldfield event calendar.”

Vanessa Hoe, Cookes Furniture Marketing Director said: “Cookes Furniture is proud to be a main sponsor of the Royal Sutton Fun Run and a long-time commercial partner of the event.

“Not only does the Fun Run celebrate its 40th event on Sunday but there’s every indication that later in the year, the Fun Run will announce over £5 million has been distributed to charities and voluntary organisations, chosen by those who participate.

“Both are incredible milestones to achieve and everyone at Cookes is incredibly proud of our association with Sutton Coldfield’s longest running and most successful annual fundraising event.

“We want to wish everyone good luck for the day and hope those not participating, will come out onto the streets and in Sutton park to cheer the thousands on the course.”
