Since 2021, runners of the Cambridge Half Marathon have raised over £5.7 million for more than 100 UK-based charities. The iconic route, electric atmosphere, lined with music hotspots and cheering stations make it a fantastic day out for supporters and runners alike.
Whether you purchase five places or five hundred, charity partners receive expert support with marketing and recruitment from the Cambridge Half Marathon team, making the race open to all charities, no matter the size or budget.
Applications for charity entries are now open for the 2027 event on Sunday 14 March. Entries sold out in record time in 2026, so we strongly recommend charities apply early to secure their places.
