Local homelessness charity The Bridge Trust has free places available. All they ask for in return is that the runner aims to raise £50 (or more!) in sponsorship for their work supporting local people who are homeless. The race is famed for the scenic meticulous organisation, value for money and friendly marshals. It was voted the No.2 Half Marathon in the UK in 2011 by Runner’s World readers. It is one of the biggest events in the UK organised by a running club and Tunbridge Wells Harriers are very proud to have hosted the event for over 30 years. Over the last 5 years the race has also donated over £120,000 to charity and some worthy local causes directly from race surplus. The Bridge Trust provides quality accommodation with one to one support for the homeless. The aim is to enable to move on into a home of their own within 2 years. A long term solution to homelessness.
