Commenting on Fujifilm's support, Mark Draper, Race Director of the Bedford Half Marathon Weekend said:
The aim of the Bedford Half Marathon Weekend is to be more than just another running race, we want it to be a celebration that the people of Bedford can be proud of which includes getting the local people and businesses engaged and involved.
We are always looking for new ways to connect with the community and working with local businesses really helps us achieve that. We are very excited to have the support of Fujifilm, a truly global brand that is based in Bedford!
Andy Ross, Corporate Communications Manager at FUJIFILM UK Ltd added:
Bedford has been our home for over 35 years and we're delighted to offer our support to local projects that encourage our employees, their families, and the community around us, to take an active approach to health and wellbeing.
Many people know us as a photography, printing and digital camera company, but life-changing healthcare technologies that help enhance quality of life have also been at the heart of the Fujifilm business since the 1930s. Health and wellness are important to us.
The Bedford Half Marathon Weekend is an exciting new community-focused event for the town and we look forward to seeing it grow and prosper into the future.
