Sporting Futures announces official 3k event Sponsor, based in Derby

 
DERBY, U.K. - Jan. 19, 2015 - PRLog -- Firefly Photography, Derbyshire’s leading photographic portrait studio, is proud to be the official sponsor for the Sporting Futures 3k event due to be run on Sunday 19 April as part of the Derby 10k.

James Corbett, Company Director for Firefly Photography which is based on Friar Gate in Derby city centre, ran the Derby 10k last year and was impressed by the event. “I ran the 10k last year for a personal weight loss goal and didn’t expect to enjoy it. However the support around the course was amazing and the finish in the stadium was brilliant.” Firefly Photography will be sponsoring the 3k event in 2015, which aims to be a fun run for families and community groups. “We meet lots of different people in the studio who come in for photo shoots, many with personal reasons.

They use their photo experience as a way to achieve a goal whether that be weight loss or something much more personal. I’m proud of the reputation we have of looking after all who come through our doors and the Sporting Futures tagline of believing and achieving really does suit the event along with the ethos of Firefly Photography.” James grew up in Belper and, after travelling abroad for twelve months, he studied BA(Hons) Fine Art Photography at Derby University before going on to open Firefly Photography in 2007. “The university has always been interactive in and around Derby. After studying there it’s nice to be involved with a corporate event that they are supporting.”

Sarah Clarke from Sporting Futures organizers of the annual event has an aim to have 1000 runners attend the event this year. Last year we had just under 1000 runners in the 3k, 2015 is Sporting Futures 21st anniversary and so with the support of Firefly we are aiming to get over 1000 runners to make this year’s event the biggest and best possible as part of our anniversary celebrations. “The team at Firefly are really proud to be supporting this event and I’m hoping that we will be able to support Sporting Futures as well as our other corporate partners via the 3k race” explained James.
