About the Hackney Half
The Hackney Half Marathon is the highlight of Hackney Moves – the UK’s largest outdoor fitness festival. Your 13.1-mile run will take you through the vibrant streets of London’s East End, with live bands, DJs, and cheering crowds from start to finish. Sign up now for an unforgettable day where sport, fundraising, and music collide.
We have 40 places available, and by joining BID, you’ll help increase access to justice for people in detention facing deportation.
Why run for BID?
BID is a small, independent charity funded entirely by voluntary donations. Every pound you raise goes directly into our advice work, keeping the phone lines open, training volunteers, and providing free legal support to people locked up indefinitely in immigration detention centres. In previous years, our runners have raised over £15,000, and this year we’re aiming to beat that record!
