Fancy taking part in The Colour Run for The Mix?


For those of you not familiar with The Colour Run: it's a fundraising event where you start the run in a clean white t-shirt, and gradually get covered in rainbow colours as you go through different zones around the course.

Here are the key details:

Date: Sunday 8th July 2018
Location: Wembley Park ,3 Exhibition Way London
Distance: 5k
Registration: £28
Minimum Fundraising: £100 (don’t worry if you don’t raise the £100, you can still take part) 

We're looking for people to take part and help raise money for The Mix. If you're interested, head to the event page on our website for all the info.

Any questions, just leave a comment below. :)

Thats sad. So alone. I used to love going on chairty runs😭
    “And when they look at you, they won't see everything you've been through. They won't see the **** that turned to scars that began to fade with time. They won't see the heartbreaking things that shook up and changed your entire world. They won't know how many tears you cried or even what it was you were crying about. They won't see how strong you had to be because you had no other choice. What they will see though is how compassionate you are because you experienced pain. What they will see is how kind you are because you experienced how cruel the world is. What they will see is how good you are because you've seen how bad things or people can be. The difference between you and your experiences are who you choose to be, despite everything that could have turned you cold and unkind.You are the good the world needs and the best of us.” ~ Kirsten Corley

    Oops! Fixed the link. :+1:

    I think that's just the way it's written on our website - you can absolutely run it solo. :) I don't imagine you'd be the only one!

    Hey @Shaunie

    We've just heard back from our fundraising team and it's okay if you can't make the £100 fundraising target, they are keen to have as many young people involved as possible :) 

    Let us know if you have any other questions!
