This year’s response from charities and good causes for funding at the 2024 Sawston Fun Run & Walk was nothing short of astounding, and we have already received over £7,000 from commercial sponsors alone. The passion and dedication demonstrated by these organisations left us inspired and motivated.

Fancy Dress Competition:

Many of the runners took part in fancy dress, adding to the fun of the occasion. They were cheered on by a huge number of supporters who lined the streets, delighted by the runners’ amazing costumes.
The winners of the fancy dress were Bill and Ben, Willie Wonka and his mum and The Cat and the Fox.

If you missed out on this year’s event, don’t worry, we’ll be back next year for more fun and fundraising. Stay updated by bookmarking our website www.sawstonfunrun.co.uk and liking our Facebook Page.

Gerry Holloway, who started the event in 1986 and was co-ordinator of this year’s event said. “This year’s Fun Run was one of the best ever with a huge number of people taking part and luckily we were blessed with very nice weather. The Sawston Fun Run is more than just a race—it’s a day filled with excitement and purpose, surrounded by family and friends, all coming together to support these 24 exceptional causes at the 2024 Sawston Fun Run & Walk. Your participation isn’t just about enjoying a fantastic day—it’s about actively supporting the fabric of our community and making a lasting impact on the organisations that enrich our lives. A very big thank you to everyone who helped to make this year’s event so successful.”

The Fun Run would not be able to exist without the generous support provided by many local businesses. You can help us in many ways, whether it’s by providing personnel and equipment on the day, having a stall at the event, or by advertising the Sawston Fun Run on your own website and social media platforms.

We have a range of advertising and sponsorship opportunities costing up to £500. Many of these packages give you access to the extensive online and paper based marketing materials we use to promote the Fun Run to the population of Sawston and the surrounding areas.

Our marketing partner, Red Graphic coordinates these packages and ensures that your brand will receive considerable exposure in return for your kind support.
