The cake stall will be stocked with post-run treats and will include vegan options.
We are also able to accept sportswear donations on the day, and would love to utilise any of your unwanted items to help generate funds for our charity.
Cash and card payments are accepted.

“We had a fantastic time completing the 5K inflatable run, and even better, it supported the Priscilla Bacon Hospice Charity! The numerous obstacle courses made it feel like we weren’t running 5 kilometres. After our team regrouped at the finish line, we agreed that we would have to do this again next year!”

“We all had a blast, thank you to all who organised the event!”
