The Corsham 10K and 2K races in 2026 raised over £18,000 for around 40 local charities and groups. A big thank you to all the runners and sponsors for making a difference to the local community.
The race committee asked some of the groups what projects they were fundraising for.
Army Cadets – We will be using the funds to enhance our current IT suite. We will be purchasing Raspberry Pi’s and peripherals to facilitate upcoming STEM lessons with the cadets.
Air Cadets – The donation will be put towards training materials, particularly in rocketry and space.
Please keep an eye out on our social media platforms for exciting qualifications
coming up.
Box Playgroup – It’ll be spent on storage. This sounds boring but it’s SO useful with endless array of toddler “stuff” and enables us to keep everything tidy…which is priceless.
Corsham Wind Band Association – Will be used to purchase two sets of music.
Corsham School – We will use wisely to support our learners with new sports equipment.
Park Lane Community Garden – We discovered that we need additional small tools, Two garden forks along with some trowels and small hand forks.
Kingsdown Golf Club – The money will go to our chosen charities this year, Art at the Heart and Designability, both based at the RUH.
Corsham Pumas Girls Football Club – We will donate the money towards the new 3G football pitch fundraiser at Leafy Lane playing fields.
Corsham Rangers – Girlguiding is launching new uniform this summer, so we would use the grant to help fund uniform for new members that struggle financially.
Riding for the Disabled – We are going to use the money towards the costs of taking our riders to some upcoming competitions.
Fairtrade Corsham – We would like to use it to put towards the costs of our Fairtrade Fortnight event in October. It is our main event of the year, and we use it to help promote Fairtrade in Corsham.
