Join the #TrustTribe for the first time ever in Birmingham in 2020! The Great Birmingham Run has been added to the Trust events you can enter to support young people in recovery from cancer next year.
This half marathon in England’s second largest city now makes it easier for people who live in the middle of the country to pull on their trainers and pound the pavements to fundraise for the Trust.
The race is on Sunday 11 October 2020 and full details of how you can sign up are coming soon.
Here is the full list of events where you can join the #TrustTribe to support young people in rebuilding their confidence after cancer in 2020…

Want to sign up for an event not on our list or organise your own? That’s great! Is there an iconic or local event you have alway wanted to do? Have you got a brilliant idea to get lots of people involved? Let us know!
Whatever frontier you want to conquer – from rowing the Atlantic to organising a Santa Fun Run at your children’s school – it all makes the same massive difference.
Volunteer at an event instead
Not got the time to commit to training for or organising an event, but still want to be part of the #Trust Tribe? We always need extra support to fulfil a number of different roles depending on what the event is!
From dishing out jelly babies and supporting participants at these running events to manning a stand, championing the Trust, selling merchandise and taking donations at festivals and community events, there are heaps of ways you can help.
Eligibility – will vary by event, but generally you should be…
- Local or willing to travel at own expense.
- Able to speak knowledgeably and enthusiastically about the Trust.
- Work within a team of staff and volunteers
