Cheer on our staff and student runners and help them fundraise for charity.

Over 100 staff and students will be running the Vitality Bath Half Marathon on Sunday 12 March to raise money for local and national charities.

Volunteer to cheer

We are looking for volunteers to join our cheering squad. Help us to cheer along Team 50 as they run 13.1 miles round Bath. We are also looking for one daring individual to be our duck mascot. Could that be you?!

It should be great fun for everyone. Please email RAG to sign up now. There will be a short briefing for volunteers at 1:15pm on Thursday 9 March, CB 4.16. We will provide T-shirts and refreshments on race day – please arrive by 9:50am on Sunday 12 March at our marquee in the runners village.

Sponsor our runners

We would also be grateful to anyone who would like to sponsor our runners. They are fundraising for RAG’s Big Four chosen charities: CLIC Sargent, Bath Rugby Foundation, Trauma Recovery Centre and The Forever Friends Appeal, with donations also going to Cry in the Dark (nominated by VTeam) and Zambia IDEALS (nominated by TeamBath). Any support that you can offer is greatly appreciated by the whole team!

Good luck Team 50!
