Event information

Your support has never been more vital
One in four children in the UK experience poverty.
All children have big dreams. But not every child gets the opportunities they need to thrive in school. Children experiencing poverty only have half the chance of fulfilling their potential at school than their wealthier classmates. You can change this by signing up and showing your support with Run the River. Help power the potential in our young people by fundraising or donating to support the children who need it the most.
With your help, we can ensure all children can have the future of their choice.
