ABP Newport Marathon Festival | NEWPORT, WALES
Running for a charity is an amazing thing to do.
Knowing your run has helped others, gives a huge boost to the satisfaction you’ll feel on finishing the race. You’ll also be more highly motivated during your training and the race itself.
Several of our Official Charities have free or discounted rate spaces available. They can offer you official sponsorship forms, details on how you can fundraise with Enthuse and offer specialist help and support.
If you are a charity interested in purchasing a fundraising bundle please email charity@run4wales.org for more information.
Please note that the race Terms and Conditions, which can be viewed here also apply to individuals entering via an official charity, charity package partners and charities purchasing individual or additional spaces from the organisers. This applies to race spaces and any other associated benefits. Some charities will apply their own refund/cancellation policy.

Mind in Gwent
Mind in Gwent is thrilled to be partnering with Run4Wales for the 2026 ABP Newport Marathon Festival.
The festival is a highlight in the Newport calendar, bringing thousands of participants and spectators to our city, along with an electric atmosphere. We have been part of the Newport community for over 45 years and are excited to be such a key part of this incredible event.
We are proud to be the headline charity. We are working to raise awareness of mental health and providing support to those who need us.
Physical activity, especially outdoors, has a number of benefits on mental wellbeing, and we hope all the participants and spectators feel the positive impact of this. Funds raised from this event will go towards providing vital mental health support and services to people, at a time when the demand is higher than ever.
