THE GREAT ERRIS RUN 2026 🏃♂️
📅 Sunday 9th August @ 9am
Tickets are now live for the Great Erris Run in loving memory of Rob Turner. ❤️
Rob was a dedicated and much-loved member of the Our Lady’s Secondary School community since 1995, serving as a teacher, coach, and Special Needs Assistant. Known for his kindness, patience, and ability to bring out the best in others, he made a lasting impact on countless students through both sport and support.
Rob also enjoyed great success as a professional footballer, winning both the FA Cup and UEFA Cup with Ipswich Town under Sir Bobby Robson.
His legacy lives on in the confidence, character, and memories he helped shape within our community.
