Bangor 10k and half marathon

Enjoy a run that takes you from the picturesque city of Bangor, then along the North Wales coast taking in Penrhyn Castle, the Garth Pier and the Menai Straits – including stunning views of Anglesey and Snowdonia – before returning to the city. Choose a 10K run or a half marathon.

When you sign up, you’ll receive:

  • Fundraising pack and dedicated fundraising support
  • Tearfund t-shirt or running vest, plus iron-on letters to customise your kit
  • Tearfund water bottle
  • Training tips and advice
  • A warm Tearfund reception at the finish line
  • The knowledge that you will be changing lives as the money you raise helps to beat poverty

You’re winning already!

Why should I get involved?

Poverty isn’t going to end itself – each one of us has a part to play. Run with Team Tearfund and together, let's finish poverty for good.

Now is the time to help beat poverty

Around the world, conflict is rife, climate change is forcing millions from their homes, and one in ten people are still living in extreme poverty. This is not God’s plan.

Your running will make a difference. The money you raise will empower people to lift themselves out of poverty, live transformed lives, and fulfil their God-given potential.

Poverty destroys lives. Join the fightback.
