Race For Life Leeds is a Cancer Research UK fundraising event held at Temple Newsam on Sunday 12 July 2026, inviting participants to run or walk to raise money for life‑saving cancer research. The event features multiple distances (3K, 5K and 10K) and is promoted with the Race for Life brand and community fundraising support. The start and finish are on the field in front of Temple Newsam House, with a fun warm‑up planned and a programme of spectator activities to encourage family and community attendance.
The course is a single‑lap route over mixed terrain including grass, surfaced paths and woodland paths, with varying elevations and approximately 2.5 km of uphill sections, so participants should prepare for some inclines. The event is accessible and family‑friendly, with facilities such as refreshments, toilets, parking and support for wheelchair users (with assistance), and organisers provide fundraising guidance and online community support after sign‑up. Entrants are encouraged to check official Race for Life communications after registration for any course or logistical updates.
