Get ahead in the race by signing up for the Care for Kids annual Barnstaple 10k in June. Entries close online at midnight on Wednesday 3 June but you can sign up in person on the day between 8.30am and 9.30am.

Now in its 9th year, the annual Care for Kids Barnstaple 10k takes place on Sunday 7 June 2026, starting and finishing at Barnstaple Rugby Club. It’s a largely flat route, which makes it the ideal race for beginners, and experienced runners hoping to achieve a personal best.

There will be a medal for all finishers and prizes for the fastest runners in each age category as well as a special prize for the person or team who fundraises the most! It costs just £26 for affiliated runners and £28 for unaffiliated runners.

The Barnstaple 10k is supported by headline sponsor Brewer, Harding & Rowe. If your business would like to sponsor the event get in touch with Care for Kids North Devon today.

Care for Kids Charity Manager, Jacky Massos, says: “Our Barnstaple 10K is the highlight of our year and is really popular with local runners. As a charity race, all your entry fee is spent to help local families in need in North Devon. Get in quick if you want to take advantage of our early bird offer, it’s only available for one month. We also need volunteers and more sponsors, so if you’d like to do something amazing for our small charity, please get in touch.”
