Take a moment and imagine lacing up your trainers, stepping outdoors and embarking on a new challenge. Now imagine pounding the pavements of Bath, hearing the roar of the crowd, beating personal bests and finally crossing that finish line.
What a feeling!
That feeling only gets better when you are part of #TeamGrandAppeal. Run with us and you'll get more than a charity t-shirt! You'll be part of a supportive and passionate family of fundraisers, challenging themselves to change a child's life at Bristol Children's Hospital.
Whether you are taking on this distance for the first time or are a seasoned pro, Bath's flat and well-supported course, as well as picturesque surroundings, makes it the perfect race to add your 2022 calendar. Perfect for all abilities and a popular event for capturing that PB! Run with a bigger purpose, knowing every step you take is making life better for young patients from across the South West.
The difference you'll 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.
