Due to amazing feedback and unprecedented demand we are bringing back our Rainbow Run - our family-friendly colour run for the third year!

Get ready to experience a burst of colour and laughter as we come together for a day of fun and giving back to your local hospitals. This exciting event will take place on Sunday, June 23, 2024 at 10:00 am in the heart of Stevenage, at Ridlins Athletics Stadium, SG2 9LX.

As you make your way through the course, be prepared to be showered with a vibrant array of colours at our colour stations. Each station will douse you in a different colour, creating a mesmerizing rainbow effect as you cross the finish line.

But it's not just about the run - it's about making a difference. By participating in the Rainbow Run, you'll be supporting Lister Hospital, New QEII, Hertford County Hospital and Mount Vernon Cancer Centre. Together, we can make a positive impact in our hospitals.

On the day you can expect an exciting event village with food stalls, ice cream, bouncy castles and merchandise.

All runners will receive a race number where you can dedicate your run to someone; this could be in memory of a loved one, to one of our wonderful NHS staff members or a team at one of our hospitals. Everyone will also receive a medal when crossing the finish line!

There will be a trophy awarded to the runner with the best rainbow inspired outfit so make sure you dress to impress - the bigger the better! We also have coveted trophies for Top Fundraiser and our Top School Fundraiser Shield!

Don't miss out on this incredible event that will leave you with unforgettable memories and a heart filled with joy.

Thank you to our wondefrful event sponsors
