Free to enter – Support Brian House Children’s Hospice
Blackpool Night Run is completely free to enter. All we ask is that every participant raises a minimum of £30 in sponsorship or makes a one‑off donation to support the incredible care provided at Brian House Children’s Hospice. Every pound you raise helps us continue supporting local children and families when they need it most.
About Brian House Children’s Hospice
Brian House is the only children’s hospice on the Fylde coast and helps to care for babies, children and young people with life-limiting and life-threatening conditions.
Money raised through sponsorship and donations play an enormous part in covering our costs, and help ensure our services continue to run year on year.
If every runner can donate or raise a minimum of £30.00, this event could raise an incredible £120,000 for Brian House. This would allow us to not only run our life-changing services, but develop new ones; allowing us to be there for even more families on the Fylde coast.
