World Record Attempt – Great British Relay

On 9th June 2016, staff and pupils of Portland High School will take part in the Great British Relay in an attempt to help secure three World Records. As part of a round Britain relay, they will run from Braco to Dunblane – a distance of 12.5 km (7.76 miles). As well as contributing to world record attempts for:

  • longest in duration continuous running event.
  • longest distance hand delivered message and
  • longest game of Chinese Whispers,

we are raising sponsorship for JAPES. JAPES has been set up to buy a modified wheelchair (called a Joëlette) to allow children with mobility challenges and disabilities to be included in popular mass running events.
