We’re really excited to announce that The Running Charity is becoming the official charity partner of JoinTheRun, not just for one event, but across our future events too.
If you haven’t heard of The Running Charity before, they use the power of running to support young people experiencing homelessness or dealing with complex challenges, including trauma and mental health needs. Their programmes combine running with youth work, coaching, and wider support to help young people build confidence, connection, and a stronger foundation for their future.
And honestly, it feels like a pretty perfect fit for JoinTheRun.
We’ve always wanted JoinTheRun to be about more than just running. Run. Connect. Inspire. That means using our community to do some good too.
We’ll be kicking things off with the Summer Edition 10K Weekend, where £2 from every entry will be donated to The Running Charity.
But this is just the start. We’re really excited to see what we can achieve together across future JoinTheRun events and give our community even more opportunities to run, fundraise, and make a difference.
If you’re taking part in the Summer Edition, you can also set up your own fundraiser and help raise even more for The Running Charity.
Here’s to plenty of miles and making those miles count.
