DELIGHTED TO ‘BEE’ INVOLVED

We are delighted to be a sponsor of this years ‘Bee In The City’ initiative!

Over 100 Bees will be placed along a specially designed trail, running the length and breadth of the city, in one of the most spectacular public art events the city has ever seen. Each Bee has been designed by a different artist and celebrates the unique buzz of Manchester, from its industrial heritage to its vibrant music scene.

The Sports Tours International Bee will be named ‘Mo’ in remembrance of a wonderful woman, Mo Done, who was an inspirational, great Mancunian, a supporter of many Manchester charities and an integral part of Sports Tours International’s business. The Bee itself will become synonymous with the businesses new charitable initiative ‘Running Bee Foundation’ which will donate funds from its organised running events to communities across Manchester and the North West, created to promote health and wellbeing and the fight against childhood obesity.

Chris Bird, CEO of Sports Tours International said “Our Bee in the City is the inspiration of one woman Mo Done, who sadly passed away on July 7th. Mo loved to run, completed many marathons around the world and had a huge positive influence on our business. The legacy of our Running Bee ‘Mo’ will be announced shortly and I am certain that our City will embrace the spirit of Mo Done through our Running Bee initiatives”.

On Monday morning July 23rd, Sports Tours International will unveil ‘Mo’ at the Etihad Campus, a facility that is synonymous to promoting the benefits of exercise and sport with a number of specially invited guest present as well as local media. If you would like to join us, please do contact Kevin Harmer using the details as per the below.

The Bee in the City trail launches on 23rd July for nine weeks, with the route set to include famous landmarks, cultural hotspots, and some of the city’s undiscovered gems.
