A major event in the UK's running calendar, the Sheffield Half Marathon is South Yorkshire’s biggest event of its kind.
Thousands of runners of all abilities will be taking part, raising many thousands of pounds for numerous great causes.
With a city centre start and finish, a huge crowd of enthusiastic supporters will cheer participants out and back. The event boasts a stunningly scenic route with majestic views of the Peak District on the climb to Ringinglow.
The race even incorporates a 'triple test' giving entrants a chance to be crowned Peaks Challenge winners in a timed hill climb, triumph in a times 10K downhill sprint section and cross the finish line first to lift the Sheffield Half Marathon title.
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.
