WWF is delighted to be the new title partner of the Richmond Kids' Mile, a running event exclusively for under 16s.
To celebrate this new partnership, WWF are encouraging all runners to ‘Wear it Wild’ on race day. Participants can embrace this theme by wearing an item of animal-related clothing, painting their face, or by galloping to the start line in full fancy dress!
And what's more, all money raised through the Richmond Kids’ Mile will be used to fund WWF conservation projects across the globe. Together we can save our one shared home.
