By Joshua Robinson –
On Saturday 8th June, Forget Me Not’s Colour Run returns to Greenhead Park in Huddersfield. The day will see up to 1000 participants take on either a 3km or 5km walk, jog, or run while being showered in clouds of coloured powder.
The annual event has helped raise thousands for this local charity which supports children with life-shortening conditions and their families across West Yorkshire.

Vicky Lough, Senior Events Fundraiser at Forget Me Not, said: “Our fabulous Colour Run is our biggest and most colourful event of the year and one the whole community can get involved in. Whatever your age or fitness level, as long as you enjoy getting colourful, then this is the event for you! Every penny raised by participants getting sponsored will go towards supporting local families facing or living with the loss of their child. Last year our colour runners together raised an amazing £32,000 – we’d love to raise even more this year.”
“Early bird tickets are now on sale. So, if you want to be part of the most colourful run in Huddersfield, book your place now!”
