No, the ‘Coalville Community Fun Run 2026’ is a fun community event for all the family, not a race. No times or positions will be recorded and no prizes given

Yes, we ask you to indicate your chosen course for planning but you can select which course to take on the day

If there is spare capacity then we may consider accepting entries on the day (there may be an added cost). However, the only way to guarantee your entry in this event is to sign up in advance as once we hit our limit we will close entries

We would recommend that local residents walk to this event where possible. However, car parking facilities are available on-site and are subject to normal parking fees (£3 for full day)

Toilets and baby changing facilities are available in the Colliery Cafe. Unfortunately, there will be no entrant changing or baggage facilities available so we advise that entrants arrive ready changed in their run/walk outfits

Yes, spectators are very welcome. There will also be an opportunity for those wishing to support the charities but who are unable to run, as we will also be accepting donations on the day

The Colliery Cafe will be open as normal, serving food and drinks. Snibston Colliery Park has a large outdoor play area for children. We expect each of our chosen charities to be present to hand out information. We will also offer stalls to other organisations and businesses

We welcome all abilities to take part in the event and the 2k course is accessible to all. Note that the 5k course has narrow gates which make it unsuitable for pushchairs and wheelchair users

All under 5s who register will receive a race number and a medal when they finish the course. We want them to feel part of the event

This is very much a family event, and we welcome young children or babies to join in with the aid of a pushchair or buggy. We strongly advise that you do the 2k course as the 5k course has some gates which are too narrow for most pushchair and buggies. Please bear in mind that parts of the route may be a little bumpy! For safety reasons, all entrants with pushchairs/buggies or younger children will be asked to start from the back 

Children under 13 cannot run or walk the event alone, they must be accompanied at all times. All of the event marshals will be briefed on our lost child procedure, and we have a dedicated Lost Child Officer based at Event Control near to the Colliery Cafe to deal with any incidents

We are happy for dogs to come along. For safety reasons we ask that dogs are kept under control and on a short lead while on the course, with one dog per adult only

This is a charity event organised by Bright Hope in North West Leicestershire. Net proceeds from this event will go to local charities and good causes as the main beneficiaries

Yes. You can create a just giving page or email info@brighthope-nwl.org.uk for more information. Your additional support would be hugely appreciated by our supported charities and good causes

We would be delighted to accept your support! You can make a donation online by clicking make a donation. We will also be holding a collection at the finish line
