AJ Bell Great Bristol Run Half Marathon 2026 · 10 May 2026 · Start fundraising for this event

Join us at The Great Bristol Run on the 10th May as we countdown to opening the UK's very first Leisure Facility for disabled children and young people. We need you to join us and turn the streets of Bristol purple as we push ever closer to opening!

Story

Not only have i signed myself up to do the Bristol half, William & Matilda have asked if they could join in and help raise money for Gympanzees! They are signed up to do the mini wave. The mini wave wave is a 1.5km run, For William this is going to be a huge challenge but one that he really wants to do.

Both William & Matilda knows how life changing it is going to be to our family and 1000's of other families like ours when Gympanzees opens its doors. To have a place to go to feel included, safe and free from the barriers we are faced with every day.

In Summer 2026 Gympanzees will open it doors to the UKs first ever fully accessible leisure facility for disabled children and young people!

Gympanzees Project Home Appeal is fundraising £8M to build an incredible, world class centre that will be transformational for thousands of families who are currently unable to access mainstream leisure and sport. It will see 200,000 visitors in it's first year of opening and will provide children and young people with a safe place to exercise, have fun and build friendships.

Please donate and support me if you can!
