The organisers of this year’s Lindfield Village Run are pleased to announce that booking will open later this month, for the fundraising event for King Edward Hall.
Participants for this year’s run, being held on Sunday 22nd May 2022 in order to move it away from the extra jubilee bank holidays over half term, will soon be able to sign up on the website:
www.kingedwardhall.org.uk/village-run
2022 will mark the return of the event since Covid. Last year a virtual run was held.
As normal, the run is a traditional cross country route around the village, and there will be two distances: 5k and 10k. The cost to take part is £7 and £15 respectively, with the runners starting at 10.30am.
One of the organisers Colette Cannon explained: “We are encouraging as many as possible to book their place in advance on the website – which should mean the process of registering on the day is easier. We will have as many volunteers on the sign-in desks as possible – thank you in advance to all those who give up their time on the day.”
See the website for details of the run routes, as it can change, even nearer the time – due to external factors like weather conditions in the weeks up to the event. Runners are reminded that some of the route is on private land, for which specific permission has been sought for 22nd May – therefore please don’t practise on these areas.
Lindfield Village Run is a community fundraising event for Lindfield’s King Edward Hall – a registered charity. Three local businesses have agreed to sponsor this year’s run, which helps to keep costs down. They are: Potential Personal Training, Jackson-Stops and Six Physio. Co-chair David Tingley said: “We are extremely grateful to these businesses for putting their hand in their pockets to help KEH, and facilitate such a fantastic community event.”
Online bookings are due to open in March:
