Join us for an exciting opportunity to challenge yourself and make a difference! We’re inviting all our supporters to participate in upcoming running and challenge events to help raise vital funds for Edward’s Trust which will allow us to continue providing free, specialised services that bring hope and healing to bereaved parents, children and young people in the West Midlands.
Whether you’re an experienced runner or looking to push your limits with a new challenge, your participation will directly contribute to the impact we make together.
From a 5K race to an ultramarathon, a triathlon to cycling from London to Paris, the event can be big or small, local, national or international. By challenging yourself you can help us support more bereaved families!
