Sophie said: “The honor was huge and even though we didn’t win, to get runner-up was a massive achievement for all involved.
“What seemed to impress people the most was the sheer amount of members and variety we had within our club.
“It was great to be able to point people in the direction of our Facebook page and website so they couldn’t believe how much we offered to our runners and the praise and compliments that followed were overwhelming – it really did show us that our club is something truly special.”
