Hospice Run Returns for Its 20th Anniversary Join us on Sunday, September 20, at 9:30 AM in Royal Tunbridge Wells, Kent, as we celebrate two decades of running and raising funds to support Hospice in the Weald. This beloved family-friendly event offers a chance to challenge yourself while making a significant impact for those living with terminal illness. The day features three distances—half marathon, 10k, and 5k—all set on undulating roads that are closed exclusively for runners of all abilities. The scenic route winds through the heart of Royal Tunbridge Wells, offering participants a unique opportunity to experience this charming town without traffic interference. In addition to an exhilarating run, athletes can look forward to an event village brimming with energy and community spirit. Live drumming bands will add a lively rhythm to the atmosphere, while finishers receive commemorative medals celebrating their achievement and commitment to charity. Leading up to race day, participants are provided with training plans and support from Hospice in the Weald's dedicated team to help them prepare for this special occasion. The entry fees and fundraising efforts directly benefit hospice care services, allowing each runner to make a tangible difference by raising at least £100—equivalent to three hours of specialist nursing or two hours of counseling. With its blend of competitive spirit and heartfelt cause, the Hospice Run continues to be one of the South East's premier closed-road events. Join us as we come together for this milestone anniversary run in support of a great local charity. Experience the heartwarming atmosphere, scenic routes, and community camaraderie that define this unique race day event. Register now to secure your spot at Hospice Run 2026 and be part of two decades of making a difference through running.
