The Derby & Burton Hospitals Charity Colour Run is returning to Markeaton park next month.

The fun-filled event, which will see runners follow a 5km route around Markeaton Park whilst being sprayed in a rainbow of coloured powder paint, will take place on Saturday 16 September from 11am until 2pm.

Vicky Carey, Community Fundraiser at Derby & Burton Hospitals Charity, said: “It is really important to us to have support from our local community, whose generosity enables us to carry on providing those much-needed extras, and the money raised will make a real difference to patients across the Trust.”

Runners in the event will be raising money for Derby & Burton Hospitals Charity, but can also choose to support a specific ward or department across any of University Hospitals of Derby and Burton's (UHDB) five hospital sites in Derby, Burton, Tamworth and Lichfield.

Adults and children over five are all welcome to take part in the fun run. Entry costs £25 for over-16s or £12.50 for under-16s and includes a free t-shirt and paint packet to use at the start of the race.
