About Worthing 10k

The Worthing 10k is back to its traditional date of the first weekend of June, taking place on Sunday 9th June.

This flat and fast 10k is one of the largest and friendliest running events in the south east. It's the perfect opportunity to set a new PB time - or even bag your first!

You'll also be helping to support your local hospice, with the support of our experienced events team who will help you meet your fundraising goals, no matter what they are.

Registration closes on 28 May.

Paula’s daughter, Lilly, has profound deafness and severe complex needs. Lilly and her family have been supported by Chestnut Tree House for several years, here’s what Paula has to say about the importance of the care we can only provide thanks to your fundraising and donations:

“Chestnut Tree House is amazing, they really are. They’re brilliant and they need all of the help and support that they can get so they can continue doing what they do for families like us. It would be heart breaking if I was told that they were going to get taken away from us. I don’t know what we would do without them”.
