OUR MISSION
The Coopah Refugee run club
The Coopah Refugee Run Club is an inspirational run coaching programme. We work with a range of refugee charities to help refugees integrate into society. The Run Club exists to help inspire people to start running.
INSPIRE 10 MILLION RUNNERS
We believe that running can help change lives; it can give people purpose, improve their physical health and importantly refocus them mentally. Coopah are proud to partner with a range of charities to allow us to welcome a new intake of refugees every quarter.
During our Refugee Run Club, Refugees are invited to join an eight week coaching programme which includes a running shirt, a hosted 5k parkrun on day one and eight weeks of personalised coaching through our Coopah training app. It culminates in a second ParkRun at the end of the eight weeks to track their improvement.
Each week, the academy meets virtually to share their progress, discuss openly how they are feeling and get tips from a range of running experts. Once the programme ends, Coopah provides every graduate with a lifetime coaching subscription so they can continue to use the power of running to help them be fit, happy and make the most of their lives.
We’re on a mission to inspire 10 million runners.

Over my years as a runner I have trained for and run many marathons (in fact this year will be my 7th London Marathon, which just feels wild) and whilst I can confidently say there have been times I have nailed it, I have also made a fair few mistakes along the way too.
