Full or half marathon | Registration fees from £40 | Fundraising target from £300

These much-loved events often attract more than 7,500 runners. But what makes it special is the crowds. Support for runners along the route is always phenomenal, whatever the weather with runners of all abilities and ages and a fantastically vibrant atmosphere guaranteed, this run could be right up your street!

Why Child Bereavement UK?

Child Bereavement UK helps families to rebuild their lives when a child grieves or when a child dies. We support children and young people (up to the age of 25) when someone important to them has died or is not expected to live, and parents and the wider family when a baby or child of any age dies or is dying. We provide training to professionals in health and social care, education, and the voluntary and corporate sectors, equipping them to provide the best possible care to bereaved families.

When you fundraise for us, you’ll receive:

  • a welcome email and fundraising pack
  • a charity vest to wear on the day
  • support to achieve your target from our dedicated team 
  • e-newsletters updating you with news from across the charity
  • access to our fundraiser's Facebook group
