22 May 2026

Diamond Bus NW round of our Friday Morning with a visit to Marus Bridge Primary School in Wigan as part of our ongoing support for children taking part in the Ironman Kids Run on 6th June in Bolton.

Following our recent visits to schools in Bolton, Wigan, Bury, and Salford our team this morning visited the school to hand out more free entry tickets, giving more children the opportunity to take part in this exciting and inspiring event. The Ironman Kids Run plays an important role in encouraging young people to stay active, build confidence.

It was a pleasure to meet pupils and staff of Moorside Primary School, seeing the enthusiasm and excitement from the children, we were able to discuss the importance of promoting physical activity and wellbeing from an early age.

Diamond Bus North West remains proud to support initiatives that positively impact the communities we serve, and we look forward to cheering on all participating children as they take on the challenge and cross the finish line on race day.

Matt Rawlinson Managing Director at Diamond Bus North West, says: "This morning we visited our 8th School around the Greater Manchester community, we have supported so many children and it's something we are proud off. This is about their health and wellbeing, it's been encouraging to see the young people excited about staying active it's building real confidence in themselves. I am personally proud that we are able to help so many children of Greater Manchester."
