Story

An event that everyone can take part in, whether you are running novice and fancy a challenge, a seasoned competitor looking for your next personal best, or want to get your children involved, the Great Bristol Run has the race for you!

Run for The Grand Appeal and our team will support you every step of the way and help you reach that finish line. Run with us and know that every stride you take, you'll be achieving more than you thought possible; helping to make life better for a child in hospital.

The difference you will make

From the moment a child arrives at the hospital, The Grand Appeal is there. Our support workers offer comfort and advice; we give parents and siblings a free, private and comforting place to stay; provide daily music therapy sessions and arts and play activities; and fund the pioneering equipment and research that save lives. For over 20 years, we have provided 360-degree support to the 100,000 young patients it cares for each year and thanks to your support, we can make a real difference to every child who visits us.

Crossing the finish line feels great. But finishing knowing you've helped change a life, that's unforgettable.
