Our Team Wilder night runners are running 5k or 10k, in the dark, through Longrun Meadow in Taunton, all to raise much needed funds for wildlife. It is so much more than just a run. The team is helping Somerset Wildlife Trust save our wildlife for the future.

Despite being surrounded by wildlife and wild places here in Somerset, our stunning habitats and species are in decline. Somerset Wildlife Trust work tirelessly to protect and prevent this, but it's people like our Team Wilder night runners, and their sponsors like you, that make the Trust's work possible.

Our team is training hard, so please dig deep for wildlife and sponsor them as much as you are able.

Thank you.
