The Unity Foundation is a Luxembourg-based NGO that is committed to the empowerment of communities through education. With projects around the world as well as in Luxembourg, they support local partners to build capacity for education and training development. This May, they will launch a new initiative called the Unity Run 42 which will be taking palce as part of the ING Luxembourg night marathon. Fernand Schaber and Anne Cuvillier from the organisation joined Tom on the Breakfast Show this morning to talk about it.

The Unity Run 42 is an intiative started by the Unity Centre to encourage increased physical activity in children and adolescents in Luxembourg in the wake of the pandemic. Participating schools will have 42 students present at the ING Night marathon that will run 1 km of the entire course each in a relay run. This first edition will feature 3 secondary schools and the hope is that more schools will participate in the run each year.
