Richmond RUNFEST returns next month for a weekend-long family event for its fifth year running.

Raising money to help causes nationally and locally the festival hosts four running events for both children and adults to get involved with across September 16 and 17.

Whether is it the Kew Gardens 10K, Kids’ Mile Races, Richmond Marathon and Half or the NIKE Family fun run there is plenty of different options for residents to take part in.

This year RUNFEST has two official partner charities ‘The Kew Foundation’ which looks at finding plant-based solutions to global charities and ‘Macmillan Cancer’.

If running doesn't tick the box residents can still get involved with the Richmond Fitness Expo or the finish festival.
