About us

Bristol Sport Foundation uses the power of sport and physical activity to inspire young people, families and communities to lead active, healthy and happy lives.

Since our establishment in 2016 we have grown considerably, supporting the physical and mental health of 8,500 children (especially those who are disadvantaged) from Bristol and the West of England on a weekly basis.

Our sports and educational interventions are designed to break down barriers to participation, to allow everyone to enjoy being physically active.

Why run for us?

By joining the Bristol Sport Foundation team with one of our charity places, you’ll get reduced entry to the race at just £40, guaranteeing your place on the start line, and all you need to do is raise a minimum of £250 in sponsorship.

The money you raise will directly support young people in areas of deprivation to participate in sport and physical activity by reducing the financial barriers.

As a thank you for supporting us, your charity place entry includes:

  • Bristol Sport Foundation t-shirt to wear throughout your training and on race day
  • A pair of tickets to watch Bristol Bears or Bristol City FC home game at Ashton Gate Stadium for the top 10 fundraisers
  • Fundraising pack filled with information and tips to support your fundraising
  • A Facebook group to join fellow BSF runners to share progress, advice and support before the event
  • Our BSF team cheering you on!

You can register to run for us here.

Already registered to run?

If you already have a place, you can register for a BSF fundraising space here for free, and still receive the same benefits.
