About the OX5 RUN
The OX5 RUN is back and celebrating 25 years!
Get ready to make history! On 18 April 2027, the OX5 RUN returns to the spectacular grounds of Blenheim Palace for a very special 25th anniversary celebration – and you should to be part of it.
For 25 years, the OX5 RUN has brought people together to support Oxford Children’s Hospital and children’s areas across our whole NHS Trust.
Now, it’s time to celebrate everything that makes this event so special and support local children in hospital.
Participants can run, walk, or jog the beautiful five-mile course individually or as part of a team with friends, family, or colleagues. Children aged 10 and over are welcome to take part, with a fundraising goal of £250 or more to help make a real difference for young patients.
And what better way to kick off the 25th anniversary celebrations than with a fantastic super early bird offer?
If you sign up before 01 December 2026, an early bird discount available at £25 per adult and £12 per child.

About the Oxford Hospitals Charity
Oxford Hospitals Charity helps to transform care – funding the best medical equipment, research, training and facilities for our patients and staff.
Although they aren’t a huge charity, they have a massive impact – and that’s because they keep things local and work very closely with their clinical colleagues to understand how they can really make a difference.
From the small things, like providing quality reclining chairs for cancer patients having lengthy chemotherapy, to larger projects, such as funding computerised surgical equipment to help our talented surgeons with the most complicated operations, this is your local charity supporting your local hospitals.
Donations have also helped create the Cancer and Heart Centres in Oxford and the Brodey Cancer Centre at the Horton General, as well as the Oxford Children’s Hospital.
