Parkrun challenge for Caring For Life

Gayle Pennant is raising money for Caring For Life

Parkrun challenge · 28 February 2026

Caring For Life is a Christian charity seeking to "Share the Love of Jesus" with at-risk and hurting people, including those who are homeless. Through providing long-term support, homes and friendship, we gradually help people to move on from past heartache and hardship towards a happier future.

Story

In February 2027 Caring For Life will be 40 years old! As we approach that celebration we plan to complete 13 parkruns, the first letters of each one combining to spell

C A R I N G F O R L I F E.

Join us as we raise funds, have fun and thank God for 40 years of sharing the love of Jesus here. If you would like to join us running parkruns near you please just donate through this page (suggested £20-30 per participant) and contact CFL at pr@caringforlife.co.uk to request a t-shirt to take part. Donations in support of your runs can also come through this page.

For the letter C we started with Chevin Forest parkrun near CFL . You might want to start with Castlewellan (NI), Chester or Crystal Palace. There are lots of options for each letter. Perhaps we might even manage to meet up at some of these events!

You're also welcome to send photos of your events and I'll add them to this page.

Caring For Life is a registered charity that aims to "Share the Love of Jesus" in practical ways to help people who are vulnerable to feel they belong to a family, have self-respect, dignity, and a purpose in life. We do this by providing housing support in the community, supporting people in our residential homes, and offering therapeutic activities from art and craft to caring for cattle at Crag House Farm, the home of our charity's headquarters on the outskirts of Leeds.
