Lace up for a local challenge with a purpose. Accommodation Concern is inviting runners to join Team AC at the Kettering 5K and Half Marathon on Sunday 14 March 2027, raising money to help people facing homelessness and poverty.
Whether you are working towards your first 5K or taking on the half marathon, your fundraising can help people across North Northamptonshire access housing advice, debt help and supported accommodation.
Run for a place to call home
Everyone deserves a safe place to live and the chance to build a more secure future. AC provides practical advice and support when people are struggling with housing, money or the risk of homelessness. Our supported accommodation gives people a safe place to stay alongside help to move towards independent living.
By getting sponsored for your run, you can help that work continue. Invite a friend, bring colleagues together or set yourself a personal challenge and run with Team AC.
Choose your challenge
- Kettering 5K: a goal to work towards if you are starting out, returning to running or prefer a shorter distance.
- Kettering Half Marathon: take on 13.1 miles and make your training count for your community.
Both events take place on Sunday 14 March 2027. Choose your distance on our Run for Charity page and check the current entry details, eligibility and fundraising requirements before registering.
Wear your Team AC colours
Every Team AC runner gets a “Homelessness can jog on!” shirt, with a choice of turquoise or magenta. Let us know your size and colour preference when you sign up.
