Great Birmingham Run Half Marathon
Date: 04th May 2025
Minimum Age: 17
Pershore Road, Birmingham
The AJ Bell Great Birmingham Run is the Midlands’ biggest and best running event, with thousands of Brummie runners taking to the streets every year to challenge themselves and raise cash for charity. There’s everything you’d expect from a Great Run – notorious start line hype, top on-route entertainment and an event village that feels more like an after party – but the carnival atmosphere and the passion and spirit of the runners is all Birmingham. Expect inspiring sights, iconic landmarks and incredible support all along the 10k and half marathon route.
Doctors of the World UK is part of a global network of 17 Médecins du Monde partners; between us we are delivering over 400 projects in more than 70 countries. We help vulnerable people to access medical care – wherever and whoever they are. We work to respond to disasters and emergencies overseas, whilst also making sure that vulnerable people right here in the UK are receiving medical care and treatment via our CQC registered clinic, outreach teams and helpline. All delivered by our team of volunteer doctors and nurses supported by our expert staff. We are here to help everyone access medical care, and many of those we support in the UK are asylum seekers or refugees. Alongside this direct practical support, we campaign tirelessly to make changes to the systems that are preventing our clients from accessing the care they need.
