On a route packed with cheering crowds, high-fives, and fancy dress, thousands of kids – just like us – will be running their hearts out. Whether it’s the daring 1.5km Mini Dash (ages 3–8) or the 4km Junior Sprint (ages 9–16), every single step counts. And this year, we’re proud to say every step we take will help support families going through the unimaginable.

Why Rainbow Trust?

Rainbow Trust Children’s Charity supports families who have a child with a life-threatening or terminal illness. Their incredible Family Support Workers are there through the toughest times – in hospital corridors, at home after devastating news, or simply holding a hand when it’s needed most. They’re there when families need someone the most – and they need our help to keep doing it.

This Run is More Than Just a Medal

Sure, we’re excited about the medal (and maybe a few Gladiators at the starting line 🛡️✨), but we know this day means much more. We’re running for children who can’t. For parents who never thought they'd need support. For brothers and sisters trying to stay strong.

How You Can Help

Every pound you donate helps fund that vital support – whether it’s transport to hospital appointments, emotional support at the bedside, or a listening ear when words fail.

🎯 Our goal? Raise as much as we can – and maybe even a little more.

So please, if you can, donate today. Share our page. Cheer us on. Be part of something amazing.

Together, we can help make sure no family has to face childhood illness alone.

Thank you for supporting our run – and more importantly, the families who need Rainbow Trust now more than ever. 🌈
