Sign up for the Helen’s Trust Chatsworth 10k to aid end-of-life care charity

More than 1,000 people are expected to lace up their running shoes for the 2021 Helen’s Trust Chatsworth 10k on the morning of Sunday, September 12.

The runners can tackle the main multi-terrain stretch or a short 3k course, both on the Chatsworth estate.

A traditional Bakewell pudding, donated by Bloomers of Bakewell, will be given to the first 250 runners over the finish line of the 10k run.

Becca Gregory, fundraising & events coordinator at Blythe House Hospicecare & Helen’s Trust said: “We are really looking forward to the return of the Chatsworth 10k, following the cancellation of the 2020 event due to Covid-19. Even more so given the impact the pandemic had on our ability to raise funds for our vital services.”

Blythe House Hospicecare & Helen’s Trust provide 24/7 at-home patient care and family support to anyone living in the Derbyshire Dales, High Peak and North East Derbyshire who wishes to remain at home at the end of their life.

Through its community hub located in Chapel-en- le-Frith, the charity also provides counselling, physiotherapy, clinics, symptom management and carer support to anyone affected by cancer or a life-limiting illness.

Blythe House Hospicecare and Helen’s Trust welcome runners of all abilities to sign up. The local community can also support the event by volunteering to marshal the course.

Registration for the 10k is £21, with a £2 discount available to UKA affiliated runners. Entry to the 3k is £6 for adults and £4 for children.

Registration is open now at www.blythehousehospice.org.uk/event/chatsworth-10k
