Autumn Charity Fun Run and Walk

Autumn Charity Fun Run and Walk takes place on 11 October 2026 at Edinburgh Outdoor Fitness, Inverleith Park. Organised by Edinburgh Polish Community Group / M&F CIC, the event combines walking and running activities with a charitable purpose. It is designed to be community focused and inclusive, with particular attention to families, children, older people and participants with disabilities.

The programme offers a range of distances so people can choose an appropriate activity. Volunteers and event stewards will be available during the day to provide information and practical support.

  • 10 km, charity walk for longer distance participants
  • 2 km, Family Fun Run and Walk, accessible for wheelchair users
  • 5 km, cross-country run in Inverleith Park
  • 5 km, charity walk, shorter social route

The 2 km family route is described as accessible for wheelchair users and suitable for participants with disabilities. The 5 km cross-country run uses the park setting and is presented as a community fun run rather than an elite competition. The event emphasises participation, wellbeing and local community spirit while combining physical activity with charitable fundraising. Participants are expected to take part at their own pace and to enjoy the outdoor setting with support from volunteers and organisers. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
