If you enjoy running and would like to support our vital work, please consider supporting Emmaus Village Carlton in the Bedford Running Festival.

We have a number of charity places, with no sponsorship limit, at the event being held in Russell Park, Bedford on Saturday 6th and Sunday 7th September.

This is the county’s biggest weekend of running and festival fun and all we ask is that you raise as much as you can to support us.

Festival fun for all the family

The Bedford Running Festival is more than just a running event, it’s a festival for all the family, with entertainment as well as a fantastic range of running races.

Runners have the choice to conquer the Raring2go Mini-mile, Bedford 5k, Twilight 10K, Bedford Half Marathon or Bedford 20!

Meanwhile, back at the event village there will be festival vibes galore, with live music, food and drink, outdoor cinema, health and well-being area, kids’ zone and fun fair. And don’t forget to say hello to the Emmaus Village Carlton team who will have our own stall at the event!

Every step helps our vital work

Don’t miss out on what is sure to be a fantastic weekend in Russell Park, located in an idyllic position, opposite the beautiful Bedford Embankment.
