The Event
Bath Half is one of the longest-established and most popular city centre road events in the UK. The course itself is fast and flat, making it suitable for all abilities - whether you are new to running or aiming for your personal best. The route take you alongside the River Avon, and right through the heart of the historical city of Bath.
The Impact of Team BCDH
In 2023, Team BCDH are running to fundraise for vulnerable animals who are unwanted or have been neglected and abandoned through no fault of their own. These animals are rescued, rehabilitated, and given a second chance at happiness in new loving homes.
We set a fundraising target of £250, which is enough to keep a rescue dog safe and comfortable in a kennel for a week. The impact our Bath Half runners is vital to our work every year, and goes a long way to spreading the word about the work we do with vulnerable animals.
