Activities

The Wilmslow Half Marathon raises funds by organising an annual half marathon race in the roads around Wilmslow and Mobberley. The event is held at the end of March or beginning of April and has been held since 1984. Usually between 3-5000 competitors enter the event. Any surplus generated by the event is distributed to sports clubs and other organisations in the area. In 2019 the committee rebranded the event as the Wilmslow Running Festival and incorporated a 10Km race and a children’s fun run.

The race was cancelled due to Covid in 2020, The 2021 race which was due to take place in March was postponed until September 2021. The 2022 race took place as planned in March 2022. So 2021/22 accounts cover costs and income for the two races which took place in the financial year.

Donations of £54,550 were made during the year. The accounts show a deficit for the year of £48,884. However to set against this deficit the Trustees agreed to carry forward the surplus generated in 2020 FY (£35,888) and also the surplus from the 2021 FY (£2,536).
