Run Solihull is returning in 2026, bringing together runners of all abilities for one of the West Midlands’ most popular road running events. With a vibrant atmosphere, closed roads and fantastic crowd support, this is a brilliant opportunity to challenge yourself while raising vital funds for young people experiencing homelessness.
Distances Include 5K & Half Marathon!
Why Take Part?
At St Basils, we provide accommodation, support and guidance to around 1,000 young people every night who are experiencing or at risk of homelessness. These young people are not just given a safe place to stay, but are also offered training, employment opportunities and well-being support to help them rebuild their lives and achieve lasting independence.
Every pound raised goes directly to our mission of preventing youth homelessness — and by taking part, you become a crucial part of that mission.
