The Highgate Mile

Over 250 fun runners joined us in Waterlow Park on Sunday 23rd March to help us Raise Money for Sports Relief, along with thousands of others across the UK. 

Old and Young, families and even a few dogs joined us to run the circuit of one of the most beautiful parks in London. 

Runners were able to choose from the 6 mile, 3 mile, and one mile options. The day was a great success and the weather was very kind to us even if the hills of Highgate weren't! 

To absolutely everyone who took part, we can’t thank you enough. Because of your amazing generosity the current Sport Relief total stands at £53,370,743 - But you can still donate and even the smallest amount of money will help change lives for those less fortunate across the globe! 



Sports Relief is a charity from Comic Relief in association with BBC Sport which brings together sport and entertainment to raise money for vulnerable people in both the UK and in the world's poorest countries. 


In the UK, money raised helps give shelter to homeless young people and protection to those living on those living with domestic abuse, and provides life saving vaccines, clean water and education for those across the world. The heart of the campaign is the 'Sport Relief Mile' which involves members of the public doing their bit for charity.
