The Trentham Estate, Stone Road, Stoke on Trent, ST4 8JG, United Kingdom
Stoke On Trent 5k 2026 is part of Cancer Research UK’s Race for Life series and takes place at The Trentham Estate on the evening of 2 June 2026. The event invites participants aged 16 and over to walk, jog or run a 5 km distance in support of life‑saving cancer research, with a recommended minimum fundraising target in place. The occasion is non‑competitive in tone and emphasises inclusivity, community fundraising and personal challenge rather than finishing times. Entry to the event site is permitted from 17:00 on the day, giving participants time to arrive and prepare.
The route starts and finishes on the grass behind the Italian Gardens and runs around the lake and through woodland, offering mixed terrain that is mostly flat with one steep hill. The event page highlights accessibility measures and on‑site assistance for wheelchair users, free parking in the Trentham Estate car park and a range of public‑transport options for attendees. Practical details such as a course map, a what3words start location (///wage.tender.voting) and information on refreshments and toilet facilities are provided to help participants plan their visit.
