University Parks, Parks Road, Oxford, OX1 3RF, United Kingdom
Oxford 10k 2026 is part of Cancer Research UK’s Race for Life series and invites participants to run, jog or walk to raise funds for life‑saving cancer research. The event is promoted under the Race for Life – Cancer Research UK brand and is described as a friendly 10k challenge suitable for those seeking a personal best or a sociable fundraising experience. The 10k is chip‑timed so entrants can record official times, and the route at University Parks is organised as a double lap with the start and finish on the park grass.
The event page highlights a range of participant support and accessibility measures, including wheelchair access, pushchair suitability and dementia‑friendly provisions such as Sunflower wristbands and trained Event Managers. Practical information emphasises there is no event parking on site (Park & Ride and city centre car parks recommended) and limited Blue Badge spaces are available; refreshments and toilet facilities are provided. Entry fees and fundraising guidance are published on the organiser site to support participants in meeting the minimum fundraising target.
