About this event

Annual Charity Run

Run for London is an annual community charity event organized by Mercy 4 Mankind, a subsidiary of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Youth Association (AMYA), in support of the Children's Hospital Foundation in London.

More than just a race, Run for London is a celebration of community, compassion, and giving back. Every registration helps raise vital funds to support children and families in our local community while bringing people together for a meaningful cause.

Whether you're a seasoned runner chasing a personal best, a casual jogger, a family with young children, a senior looking for a scenic walk, or simply someone who wants to support a great cause, everyone is welcome. This event is for people of all ages and fitness levels.

Set against the beautiful backdrop of Springbank Park, participants can enjoy a refreshing run or walk surrounded by nature, followed by a fun-filled community celebration. After the race and the awards ceremony, everyone is invited to stay for food and refreshments, connect with friends and neighbours, and enjoy the welcoming atmosphere together.

Run for London is about much more than crossing the finish line—it's about coming together as a community, making a difference, and creating lasting memories while supporting an incredible cause.

Join us, bring your family and friends, and be part of something truly meaningful. We look forward to seeing you at the starting line!
