What you thought...

As a completely new runner, I used the NHS Couch to 5K app, with the end goal of running my first 5k! It’s a fantastically supportive event for new runners, (and flat!), and even better that I got sponsored for Somerset Wildlife Trust too.

FAQs

How your fundraising helps

You'll run to protect and restore Somerset's wildlife and wild places!

Over half of UK species have declined since 1970, while more than one in ten are under threat and at risk of disappearing altogether - we are in an ecological and climate emergency, and your support couldn’t come at a more critical time.

By getting sponsored, you’ll help us work towards our goal of at least 30% of land and sea managed for nature by 2030, and you’ll help us fight harder to achieve our vision of a Somerset wide Nature Recovery Network. This will create more space for wildlife and nature to thrive, it will reverse the decline in species diversity, and will create resilient landscapes and habitats for wildlife (and people), that can adapt to a warming climate.

Be the champion that Somerset's wildlife needs and secure your place at the Moonlit Meadow Run today.
