Race for Life Walsall
Race for Life Walsall takes place on Sunday 10 May 2026 at Walsall Arboretum, Broadway North, Walsall, WS1 2QB. Entry fees listed are £17.49 for participants aged 16 and over and £11.00 for children. The minimum fundraising target is £50.00.
Available distances
- 10k
- 5k
- 3k
The start and finish are on grass on the main field of the Arboretum adjacent to the car park. The course runs on a mixture of tarmacked paths, woodland trails and grass fields. The 10k route is a double lap of the 5k course. Events are chip-timed. In poor weather the grass field section toward the end may be unsuitable; omitting that section would reduce the route by about 2 km.
Event parking is available within the Arboretum via the main entrance off Broadway North; the event site is approximately a 500 m walk from the car park. A drop off point and blue badge parking next to the event site are provided. The closest bus stop is Broadway North, around a 10 minute walk; Walsall train station is about 2 miles away. There are no electric vehicle charging points and no bike racks listed.
Facilities on site include refreshments, toilets, dogs allowed, suitability for pushchairs, and wheelchair access. Bag drop and showers are not available. The course may be suitable for wheelchair users with assistance. Sunflower wristbands, Dementia Friends trained staff, and a QR code for British Sign Language stage content are available on the main event site.
Registered participants receive a fundraising pack, a customisable back sign, training plans and support, access to an online community, and a Race for Life medal. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
