Helen Koch of Enviro Fixers said the Night Run is a good initiative to get the community together.
“We tried to do it pre-Covid, but it was postponed, so we’re trying to re-ignite it. It’s a good community run, getting the community together, raising funds for community projects. Any money that is raised tonight will be for the entrance sign for Durban North.”

“It’s a joint project with the Parks Department Business and Enviro Fixers. We’re raising money for plants to beautify a new entrance sign for the suburb of Durban North.
“It’s something everyone will benefit from – it shows visitors to Durban North that we’re proud of our suburb and we are trying to uplift it. I’m also just so grateful for the community for coming out on a Friday night to support us.”
The run was divided into two categories, namely, the 5km and the 10km.
