The Saucony London 10K

  • 101 Picadilly W1J 7JT (map)

Following sold out events in 2023 & 2024, you can now represent African Children’s Fund on a closed-road 10k route through Central London this July as The Saucony London 10K returns.

The incredible route promises a race to remember, as you’ll pass highlights including Big Ben, the London Eye and Trafalgar Square before you finish in Whitehall near the black gates of Downing Street.

With a course full of cheer points, supporters, entertainment and thousands of other runners, you’ll have all the motivation you need to complete your 10K challenge.

Whether you’re an experienced runner or a novice looking for a new challenge, we would love you to represent #TeamACF on the streets of London this July!

CHALLENGE HIGHLIGHTS:

  • African Children’s Fund technical t-shirt

  • Chip timing

  • Medal & finisher’s t-shirt

  • Official bag drop

  • Full African Children’s Fund fundraising support

FUNDRAISING TARGETS:

£35 registration fee + £200 minimum sponsorship

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!
