On Sunday 22nd March 2026, 7 runners took part in the Green Park Reading Half Marathon whilst raising funds for Citizens Advice Reading.
Alongside our runners, we had a wonderful group of marshalls who helped to keep everyone safe, and a brilliant cheer team at Mile 9 to encourage our runners to the finish line. The sun was shining and the atmosphere was electric across all 13 miles.
People from all over Reading and beyond came out on the streets to support the runners and keep the energy high for every participant. A massive thank you to Reading BID for sponsoring our running vests; our team certainly looked the part out there! We also want to extend our gratitude to Goldline Events for their excellent organisation; the event ran like clockwork and the atmosphere was brilliant.
Together, our team raised over £5,000 for Citizens Advice Reading!* Every pound donated will be put towards the longevity and sustainability of our services, helping us to continue to help the people who need it most for years to come.
We want to say a massive thank you to all our runners, marshalls, supporters and donors: everyone came together to create a fantastic day and raised vital funds!
