Campaign by Story
Ready to take on a challenge and make a real difference in your community?
Join Team Brick at the Run Wigan Festival 2026 on Sunday 15th March and help support people experiencing homelessness and poverty across Wigan and Leigh.
You can choose to run the Half Marathon or the 5K, making this the perfect challenge whether you’re an experienced runner, a first-timer, or setting yourself a new goal. You can also take part as part of a workplace team, running together to raise vital funds and awareness for a local cause that truly matters.
Why run for The Brick?
Every step you take helps us provide:
Safe accommodation and specialist support for people experiencing homelessness
Food, warmth and essential items for individuals and families in crisis
Pathways to stability, independence and hope
I didn’t choose to be homeless. But because people cared enough to help, I was given a chance to start again.
When I had nowhere else to turn, someone walked alongside me. Your support gave me hope when I had none.
Whether you’re running solo, with friends, or as part of a workplace team, we’ll support you every step of the way with fundraising tips, encouragement and a warm Team Brick welcome.
Take on the challenge.
Run for your community.
Run for The Brick. ❤
