Running for a Cause

The Hawkhurst 10k & 5k raises valuable funds for projects benefitting the local community. Every year, this race helps support the heart of the Hawkhurst community, helping local groups and organisations continue their wonderful work in the community. In 2026 we were delighted to support The Hawkhurst Community Hospital League for Friends, Hands of Hope Community Garden, Hawkhurst Foodbank, Hawkhurst Junior Football Club, Hawkhurst Gang Bonfire Society and the Hawkhurst Scouts and Guides.
