Glow crazy and light up the night as you complete a 5k or 2.5k sponsored run, jog, or walk around the grounds of Bolesworth Castle! Event Description: Join the Bolesworth Dark Run – Light Up the Night for Hope House Children’s Hospices! Get ready for a magical evening at the stunning Bolesworth Castle as we light up the night for a truly special cause. The sponsored Dark Run is a family-friendly event in support of Hope House Children’s Hospices, offering a fun and unique 5K route (or 2.5K for little legs) through the beautiful castle grounds – all after dark! Our warmup will begin at 6.10pm and at 6.30pm sharp we will start the run! Every participant (excluding under 3's) will receive a bespoke glow-in-the-dark medal and a goody bag to remember the night.
