Weldmar launch new £10 charity places for Weymouth Half Marathon in 2027

22nd May 2026

There is nothing quite like the atmosphere of the Weymouth Half Marathon. The coastal breeze, the roaring crowds, and the incredible sense of achievement as you cross the finish line.

But what if every single stride you took also helped a local family through their toughest days?

Well, we’re delighted to be an official charity partner for the 2027 Weymouth Half Marathon, and we want you on our team.

Whether you are chasing a new personal best or tackling your very first 13.1 miles, you don’t have to do it alone. We are welcoming solo runners, pairs, and teams to lace up their trainers and make every step count.

An exclusive offer for the first 50 Weldmar runners

We want to make joining Team Weldmar as accessible as possible. To celebrate being an official charity partner of such a popular event, we are introducing a brand-new, heavily discounted entry package—but you will need to act fast. We have just 50 exclusive charity spaces available.

A £10 race place (heavily discounted!).
A highly manageable fundraising target of just £250.
A fundraising pack and Weldmar running vest
Full support from our dedicated fundraising team to help you hit your goal.

Making every step count

Every penny you raise directly funds crucial, compassionate care for local adults in Dorset living with a life-limiting illness.

As Event Director Alan Rose puts it: “The work Weldmar does across our local community is incredible, and having them as part of the Weymouth Half Marathon adds something really meaningful to the event.”

From specialist medical care to emotional support from our counsellors and therapists, your fundraising ensures patients and their families receive the dignity and comfort they deserve whether that’s in their own home or at our hospice in Dorchester.

Secure your spot today!

Spaces are strictly limited to 50 runners and are expected to sell out quickly. Don’t miss your chance to be part of an unforgettable day while supporting a cause vital to the local community.
