About Joe's Jog

Joe's Jog is a mile long fun run in memory of Joe Humphries, a 14 year old Rothley boy who loved running.

Families, carers and young children of all ages are invited to join a charity mile-long fun run to support the work of the Joe Humphries Memorial Trust, (though children under seven will need to have an adult with them). Absolutely anyone who wants to join in the fun will have the chance to be part of the Rothley10K evening.

Entry fees and any money raised will go towards JHMTs on-going work to raise awareness of SADS and provide key lifesaving skills and equipment including public access defibrillators to help create a heart safe sporting and community environment for all across Leicester and Leicestershire. The JHMT also runs the Inspire Awards, a small grants scheme that helps inspire young people to fulfil their potential – something which the victims of SADS are cruelly denied.

Joe Humphries Memorial Trust (JHMT)

The Joe Humphries Memorial Trust has been set up to break the 'silence' on SADS, create a new generation of young life savers and inspire young people. The Trust was set up after the tragic loss of Joe Humphries who died while out jogging with his friend in October 2012.
