Want to Make a Real Difference?

Run the Nottingham Running Festival Half Marathon for OPA Cancer Charity!

Are you ready to take on a challenge that not only pushes your limits but also helps save lives?

OPA Cancer Charity is calling on supporters, runners, and everyday heroes to participate in the Nottingham Running Festival Half Marathon this summer – and run in aid of those affected by oesophageal and gastric cancers.

Why run for OPA?
Every step you take, every mile you conquer, will help us raise funds to support early diagnosis, provide crucial patient resources, and fund life-saving awareness campaigns. Oesophageal cancer often goes unnoticed until it’s too late – but together, we can change that.

What you’ll get when you run with Team OPA:

  • A free fundraising pack, which includes an OPA Cancer Charity running vest or t-shirt

  • Fundraising support every step of the way

  • The knowledge that you’re making a real difference

Whether you’re an experienced runner or looking to take on your first half marathon, we want you on our team.

📅 Event Date: 3rd Aug 2025
