The Race Centre presents its 12th iteration of the 24hr Children In Need Endurance, where 10 teams race against one another, all enclosed in the venue for the entire event. Qualifying takes place at 11:15am on Friday 19th October, before the racing begins at 1pm. We will race through the night, into the dawn, and into the afternoon once more.
All costs for participating are covered by participants and The Race Centre, so all your donations will go directly to Children In Need - don't forget Gift Aid!

The luscious locks will of course be donated to the Little Princess Trust to make real hair wigs for young people who have lost their hair through medical conditions or treatments.
