Why Run for Gwent Wildlife Trust? 

Running for Gwent Wildlife Trust is about more than improving your fitness and health – it’s about making a meaningful impact on the world around you. Your efforts directly contribute to preserving and restoring natural habitats in Gwent, ensuring that local wildlife, from hedgehogs to otters, has a safe and thriving environment.   Running for us will connect you with a passionate community of like-minded individuals who share your commitment to wildlife and conservation, while inspiring others to take action themselves. Your fundraising efforts will help safeguard endangered species and protect the green spaces that benefit both people and nature.  Plus, training outdoors and running for a cause enhances your physical health and mental wellbeing, reminding you of the beauty of nature and why it’s worth protecting. With every step, you’ll know you’re making a difference, leaving a greener, wilder future for everyone to enjoy. 

How to Get Started? 

Running for Gwent Wildlife Trust is easy: 

  1. Choose your event Run For Charity - Event Page Listing 

  1. Fill out the registration form and submit it and you’ll receive an email with everything you need to get started. 

  1. Once you’ve registered for your run, it’s time to set up your fundraising page! Platforms like Facebook and JustGiving Gwent Wildlife Trust - JustGiving make this process simple and efficient, allowing you to create a personalised page in just a few clicks. Start by adding a compelling description of why you’re running to support Gwent Wildlife Trust and be sure to include your fundraising goal so people can see what you’re striving for.  Try adding photos or videos – such as snapshots from your training runs or images of Gwent’s beautiful wildlife and landscapes . 

Once your page is live, share it widely with friends, family, colleagues, and social networks. Social media platforms like Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter are great tools for spreading the word, and you can also reach out directly via email or messaging apps for a more personal touch.  

To keep the momentum going, update your supporters with regular posts about your journey, such as how your training is progressing or new wildlife facts about the species their donations are helping to protect. Celebrate milestones – whether it’s hitting a certain distance in training or reaching a fundraising goal – and always take the time to thank everyone who donates, no matter the amount. Personal gratitude can go a long way in encouraging further support and showing your appreciation for their generosity.
