The Sapper Charity RunFest Silverstone Challenge
Imagine crossing the finish line at Silverstone, one of the world's most famous racing circuits, knowing that every mile you've run is helping support serving Royal Engineers, veterans and their families.
On 22 November 2026, you can do exactly that by taking part in the RunFest Silverstone Challenge in support of The Royal Engineers Association – The Sapper Charity.
Whether you're aiming for a personal best, taking on your first race, or simply looking for a memorable challenge, this is your opportunity to run on the legendary Silverstone Circuit while raising vital funds for the Royal Engineer family.
Simply commit to raising a minimum of £200 to secure your place. Every pound you raise helps The Sapper Charity provide lifelong support to serving Royal Engineers, veterans and their families. From welfare advice and financial assistance to support during illness, injury, bereavement and times of hardship, your fundraising ensures that no member of the Royal Engineer family has to face life's toughest challenges alone.
Adding to the experience, the Royal Engineers Motorsport Team will be joining us on the day with their race car, motorcycles and go-karts. You'll have the opportunity to meet the team, learn about military motorsport and get up close to the vehicles that represent the Corps in competitive motorsport—making this a truly unique event.
Whether you're taking part with friends, family, colleagues or as part of a corporate team, you'll be joining a community united by challenge, teamwork and a shared commitment to giving back.
Every donation makes a real difference. It helps ensure that The Sapper Charity can continue supporting serving Sappers, veterans and their families whenever they need us most.
Take on the challenge. Raise £200. Run one of the world's most iconic circuits.
Help ensure the Royal Engineer family never faces life's challenges alone.
