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

We have some amazing team members at BrightLocal who are getting involved in the Brighton Half Marathon. Harvey will be running the race to raise vital funds for YMCA DownsLink Group, while other members of the team will be volunteering on the day to help make the event a success.

By donating, you can help make a real difference to the lives of around 6,000 children, young people, and families each year, giving them the skills and support they need to build a better, more independent future.

One in 62 young people are homeless or at risk of homelessness — that’s over 10,000 young people across the South East of England.

YMCA DownsLink Group step in at times of crisis, providing supported accommodation, advice and guidance, family mediation, and counselling to protect and support children and young people when they need it most.

Supporting young people at this crucial stage empowers them to create a brighter future for themselves. Any support you can give would be hugely appreciated.
