Take big steps for tiny feet


You can enter any running event and raise sponsorship for Bliss and babies born too soon, too small, too sick.
Whether you want to enter your local 5k, or tackle the Marathon des Sables, we would love you to run for Bliss. Raising sponsorship for special care babies gives you a great reason to run in any event!

What is an 'Own Place'?

• All running events have a number of places that can be bought directly from the race organisers. If you purchase one of these places, you can still choose to collect sponsorship for a charity, and we would love for you to fundraise for Bliss.
• Runners with their own places recieve exactly the same support as runners who use a Bliss place; you will receive training information, fundraising advice and a new Bliss running vest for the day of your event.
• For some inspiration and a full list of UK races visit Runners World.
