4th September 2014 Print

Leading local housebuilder Taylor Wimpey will be on hand to offer vital support to runners taking part in Worcester’s inaugural 10k race.

Taylor Wimpey Midlands is sponsoring a water station for all competitors taking part in the event on Sunday 21st September, as the route passes through the housebuilder’s stunning riverside development at Diglis Water, taking in the Diglis Marina and Waterfront Park.

Runners – including legendary athlete Paula Radcliffe, who is set to take part – will also able to enjoy a fabulous view of Diglis Lock as they cross the new footbridge over the River Severn, before heading back to the finish line at Worcester Racecourse.

Anne Wallace, Regional Sales and Marketing Director for Taylor Wimpey, says: “We are delighted to play such an important role in the inaugural Worcester 10k and help so many runners coming through our exciting riverside development at Diglis Water, which will provide a beautiful backdrop for this part of the route.

“We believe that every single home we build is part of a community, and we are committed to ensuring that our developments do much more than just provide high-quality properties for local people. Our support for the Worcester 10k is a great example of the way we can help local organisations and events.”

Diglis Water’s Waterfront Park and floating river pontoon provide an attractive recreation space for residents and visitors, with appealing views over the river and meadows. A health and fitness centre is also located on site, while the many mooring opportunities are frequently full to capacity with narrow-boats.

There’s a superb selection of apartments currently available to reserve at the development, including one-bedroom designs from £124,995, two-bedroom homes from £144,995 and fabulous three-bedroom penthouses priced from £344,995.
