Runners, walkers and fundraisers are being encouraged to sign up for this year’s Evesham Vale 10k, which returns next month with organisers hoping to raise thousands of pounds for local good causes.
The popular event will take place on Sunday, July 5, taking participants through Evesham’s parks and historic town centre.
Open to people of all abilities, organisers say the event welcomes everyone from experienced runners chasing a personal best to those looking to complete their first organised 10k.
Entry costs £25, with places now available.
This year’s event is being supported by Love Evesham & Pershore, which is the main sponsor for 2026.
As well as promoting health and wellbeing, the Evesham Vale 10k aims to raise money for three local organisations that play an important role in the community.
Participants are being encouraged to form teams and seek sponsorship in support of Evesham Street Pastors, First Responders and Riding for the Disabled.
Evesham Street Pastors provide support and reassurance to people in the town centre during weekend evenings, while local First Responders work alongside ambulance services to provide emergency care in the community.
Riding for the Disabled helps people with disabilities enjoy the benefits of horse riding and equine therapy through a range of activities and experiences.
The event is organised by Evesham Vale Running Club, which is celebrating its 20th anniversary this year.
The club has more than 130 members and offers support to runners of all abilities, including beginners looking to complete their first 5k or 10k.
Club members also regularly volunteer at Evesham Parkrun and provide coaching, mentoring and training opportunities throughout the year.
Organisers are encouraging anyone considering taking part to sign up soon, with places expected to fill quickly ahead of race day.
Further details and registration information can be found through the Evesham Vale 10k and Evesham Vale Running Club websites and social media channels. https://eveshamvalerunningclub.org.uk/
