Raising funds through Reading Half Marathon and the Green Park Mini Marathon

Fantastic annual fundraising events on our doorstep

Could you run for us in 2027?

Times are tough and the need for our services is growing, but obtaining the funding we need to keep going is getting harder. If you could help by running Reading Half Marathon to raise funds for us in 2027, we'd love to hear from you. 

This year we're asking our runners to commit to raising at least £150. In return you'll get:

  • free medal only race entry
  • a breathable recycled PET running vest
  • free running coaching and optional training runs
  • mutual support through a WhatsApp group

If a half marathon is too much for you, how about the Green Park Mini Marathon 3km fun run? 

We'll send you full instructions for setting up your fundraising page and will help to promote it for you.

If you could pull together a team of friends or colleagues to run for us and raise funds together, even better!  

To find out more or sign up, email kathryn@home-start-reading.org.uk

Thank you again to this year's runners
