Our Asda Foundation Hull 10K, now in its ninth year, showcases the very best this East Riding city has to offer. The event has steadily grown in popularity and last year’s event attracted a record entry of over 5,000 people and another huge field is expected this year. This is a waterfront 10K which takes in the best this maritime city has to offer. Runners journey past the stunning marina and through the ancient old town.
It forms part of the lasting legacy of the late Jane Tomlinson CBE who raised almost £2m for charity through a series of endurance challenges, despite being diagnosed with incurable cancer.
MACS is a small charity making a big impact. In the UK, around 100 babies a year are born with these conditions and increasing numbers of people are seeking our support.
With YOUR help we can transform their lives. Your funds will help MACS to:
support families emotionally during the tough times
provide a platform for people to support each other and share experiences
share information, resources and essential equipment
organise social and sporting activities to build self-confidence and independence
fund research into genetic causes of the MACS conditions
