The GetPRO Bath Half is one of the UK’s most prestigious half marathons and is the largest charity fundraising event in south-west England.

Are you, your place of work or your business looking for a powerful way to make a meaningful impact this year?  Perhaps you’re looking for a way to boost wellbeing or energise your team at work?

We are delighted to announce that we have three places available to run the GetPRO Bath Half Marathon on Sunday 15th March 2026.

The start line is the Royal Victoria Park. From there you’ll be running through the traffic-free streets of the historic city of Bath, on a fast and flat terrain.  Known for its friendly and vibrant atmosphere, with great crowd support – it’s sure to be a day to remember!  Beyond the thrill of race day, this is an opportunity for you and your organisation to create lasting change.

Why run the Bath Half for the Rainy Day Trust?

The Rainy Day Trust is the UK’s only charity to support people who work in, have worked in or are apprentices entering the home improvement and enhancement industries. This includes builders’ merchants, DIY, hardware, potteries and glass, housewares and garden centres, along with the manufacture of products sold in these sectors. We also help professional tradespeople such as plumbers, carpenters and electricians.

Whether it’s an accident, financial struggles or health problems, every penny raised for the Rainy Day Trust goes towards the vital support, help and training needed in times of difficulty.
