Every step you take. Every mile you run. Every drop of sweat—it all adds up to something extraordinary.

We’re calling on runners of all levels to lace up their trainers and join us in supporting Diverse Abilities, Dorset’s only charity that supports children and adults with profound physical and learning disabilities, and their families.

Why Run for Diverse Abilities?

Because for the people we support, every day is a challenge. Many face barriers most of us can’t imagine—limited mobility, complex medical needs, and communication difficulties. But with the right support, they can live life to the fullest, with dignity, joy, and opportunity.

Your fundraising will help provide:

Specialist equipment and therapies that improve quality of life

Respite care for families who are on duty 24/7

Accessible activities and experiences that bring joy and connection

Support workers who empower people to thrive, not just survive

Why a Running Challenge?

Because running is about pushing limits. It’s about resilience, determination, and heart. Just like the people we support. Whether it’s a 5K, a half marathon, or your first jog around the block—your effort sends a powerful message: you care, and you’re willing to go the distance.

So run for those who can’t. Run for those who need a voice. Run to make a difference.

Together, we can turn miles into moments of hope.

Join the challenge. Share your story. And help us raise vital funds for Diverse Abilities.
