The Altra Brighton Half Marathon 2026 · 1 March 2026 ·

We are delighted to be a charity partner for the 2026 Brighton Half marathon, known as the ‘UK’s happiest half marathon’. It’s always a well supported and fun event along the beautiful Brighton seafront.

Story

I'm taking part in the Brighton Half Marathon to raise funds for YMCA DownsLink Group and help them be there for children and young people in Sussex and Surrey.

By sponsoring me you can make a difference to the lives of about 6,000 children, young people and families each year, helping give them the skills they need to create a better, independent future.

One in 62 young people are homeless or at risk of homelessness; that is over 10,000 in the South East of England.

YMCA DownsLink Group step in to protect children and young people from crisis by providing supported accommodation, support and advice, family mediation and counselling.

Please donate if you can to help YMCA DownsLink Group continue supporting children and young people in our city. I’ve seen the positive impact they can have and feel truly honoured to be raising money on their behalf.

Thank you so much for your support.
