Represent African Children’s Fund in an early autumn 5K or 10K race on the tarmac paths of the beautiful Hyde Park, the most famous of London’s spectacular Royal Parks. You’ll start and finish at the historic Hyde Park Bandstand and pass Speaker’s Corner and The Serpentine on your route.
With just one slight hill on the otherwise flat 2.5km loop, it’s a fast course that will help you achieve your goal and maybe even secure a new Personal Best!
Whether you’re an experienced runner or a novice looking for a new challenge, we would love you to represent #TeamACF at Hyde Park.

African Children’s Fund technical t-shirt

Why Run for African Children’s Fund?
Seemingly small donations enable our partners to minimise school absence and improve outcomes for children, leading to improved opportunities into adulthood:
£12 provides a girl in Tanzania with reusable sanitary towels and access to social education forums so she won't miss one week in four of her schooling;
£20 covers the cost of a care pack for an orphaned family in Zimbabwe so they children concentrate on learning rather than working;
£90 pays for a mug of porridge for 1,000 children in Kenya, reducing the need for working, scavenging or begging for food;
£250 supports a social worker in Uganda, to resettle a child rescued from the streets with a family.
Yes please, i’d love to take part!
