On Friday 17th April 2026, 10,000 runners will be pounding the streets of Bethlehem for the 10th Palestine Marathon. The Palestine Marathon takes place in the shadow of the illegal Separation Wall, with locals and internationals coming together in Bethlehem to take on the full marathon, half, 10km or family 5km fun run.
On Sunday 19th April 2026 of the Palestine Marathon weekend, we are planning a local community walk around Histon and Impington, in solidarity with Palestinians and to fundraise for Amos Trust's current aid projects in Gaza and the West Bank.
We will be setting off from the Histon Green at 14.00 for an easy circular walk that will take us around the village for an hour or so. Please look out for us near the duck pond, all ages and all walking abilities welcome. Wear your keffiyehs or anything Palestinian in support and celebration of this resilient people.
H&I for Palestinians is a Histon & Impington group of local residents who are keen to raise funds for aid, collect donations, raise awareness and show solidarity for the people of Gaza and Palestine. You can find our events here: https://www.instagram.com/hi_4_palestinians
