Updates (27 September 2026):

Thank you, and we did it!

Our team completed the 5km parkrun at Wimpole Estate on Saturday, and thanks to your incredible generosity, we've raised over £3,800 for Vasculitis UK!

It was a wonderful morning, with our whole team, families and supporters coming together for everyone affected by vasculitis. We're so grateful for your support.

We're also putting together a short thank-you film, which we'll share here soon. Thank you again, it means the world to us.

With gratitude,

The Cambridge University Hospitals Vasculitis Team

Every step we take at Wimpole parkrun on 26 September 2026 is a stride towards hope for those affected by vasculitis.

Vasculitis is a rare autoimmune disease that can be difficult to diagnose and affects patients and families in profound ways. With the right treatment, remission is possible, but better treatments are still needed.

Our team is united by a shared mission: to support those living with vasculitis through education, advocacy, and funding vital research. Join us in raising £1,000 for Vasculitis UK. Your donation will make a tangible difference.

Our runners: David Jayne, Rachel Jones, Rona Smith, Rosemary Rusk, Sabina Karimi, Lisa Willcocks, Dom McGovern, Jonathan Bleasel, Ashley Smith, Joshua Wade, Lucy Francis, Thomas Bond, Lisa Uchida, Carlotta Soave, July Araujo, Hugh Cahill, Dan Arcoria, Viola Ricci, Hugo Tordesillas, Anna Mayhew, Bernadette Laforteza, with more of the team joining us on the day.

Whether you would like to support the team as a whole or sponsor someone in particular, every donation goes directly to Vasculitis UK.

Our run takes place just days after the 7th EUVAS Vasculitis Course in Cambridge (22–24 September 2026), bringing together the international vasculitis research and clinical community in support of patients.
