We are delighted to return as the Official Charity Partner for the Worcester City Runs 2026.
Join #TeamAcorns for the Sutcliffe & Co Worcester City Runs 2026, taking place on a traffic free, picturesque course through the heart of Worcester.
There is so much to get involved in from a 10k to a half marathon, not forgetting the Paula Radcliffe’s Families on Track fitness challenge. Bring the whole family, your friends or just yourself with a target time!
By joining #TeamAcorns you’ll be raising vital funds to support life limited and life threatened babies, children, and young people across the West Midlands.
“It was a huge privilege to get a spot in the Half Marathon thanks to Acorns and to be able to raise some funds for such an important charity meant the world. It was an incredibly emotional day for many reasons and I hope to raise more money in the future.” – Mike, Acorns runner
