Run for our charity

APS Support UK has places that guarantee entry for runners in the following running events in 2026. Still, you are also very welcome to participate in any race by gaining your own independent place.

Once you have secured a place either via our charity or by yourself, and you are ready to start fundraising, we have our own JustGiving section where you can set up your personalised fundraising site for free; we are also happy to send you good old-fashioned sponsorship forms and any APS leaflets if that helps with your fundraising.

Every runner will receive a free APS Support UK running vest - just let us know which size you need (S/M/L/XL).

We currently have guaranteed places for:
