Story

Help protect the arboretum and enjoy one of the most beautiful running routes in the UK

All those taking part in the race will be able to make a big difference to their fitness and wellbeing, but also to the nation's heritage and environment. Money fundraised from the 10K goes right back to the arboretum wherever it's needed most, protecting this beautiful place for future generations.

I see running as an essential part of life as it helps me feel mentally balanced. I hope that the money I raise helps support the projects at Westonbirt that help mental health and wellbeing. It’s well known that being outside with nature is good for us! - Claire Sully, Westonbirt Runner

Your donations will fund essential initiatives, from nurturing saplings to preserving centuries-old giants.

I'm running for Westonbirt because I want to help maintain this beautiful environment for everyone to experience, it's a haven for many families and pets, including Peanut and Jelly (my pups) and we have to work together to maintain it's beauty. - Marc Alexander, Westonbirt Runner

With a route that takes you past champion trees and some of the rarest tree species in the world Westonbirt 10K certainly isn't your average run!
