There are loads of exciting and fun ways to raise vital funds for the Dr Hadwen Trust’s humane research. If you would like to organise a sponsored walk, street collection, car boot sale, climb a mountain, run a marathon or jump out of a plane (with a parachute!) or you have any other fab ideas, we would love to hear from you. The Dr Hadwen Trust team is on hand to offer help, advice, vital resources, eye-catching promotional materials plus you can make your very own on-line fundraising page with JustGiving to make your event a success.

The DHT does not have guaranteed places in running events but you can apply for an individual place and support our charity by collecting sponsorship. Once you have registered for an event, let the Dr Hadwen Trust know so that we can support you. Creating your own sponsorship page on JustGiving will also boost your fundraising efforts. Our event listing is not exhaustive and dates can be subject to change so check out Runner’s World to search all events.
