Fulham 10K run in aid of Great Ormond Street Hospital – November 17th 2019

Fulham 10K run in aid of Great Ormond Street Hospital, which will be returning to the area on Sunday 17th November 2019.

This mass participation running event is open to the public and held on closed roads.

Starting and finishing in Eel Brook Common, the 10km closed road route will take thousands of participants around the London Borough of Hammersmith and Fulham.

 

Due to the scale and numbers participating in the Fulham 10K, it will be necessary to implement road closures across the full 10K route to facilitate the safe passage of the participants.

The route and road closures have been carefully considered and selected through a partnership of all local authorities, emergency services and Transport for London to minimise the inconveniences of the necessary road closures.

Emergency Services will be operating as usual and pedestrian access will be unaffected across the event route, but there will be no vehicle or bicycle access on the roads closed for the event. .

 

More information regarding the exact route and timings will be distributed in due course, but it will stay within the same event footprint as per last year.

Please note that the attached map is an indication of the event footprint only, and the exact route will change.

Key roads that will feature on the event route are New King’s Road, Fulham Road, Parsons Green, Dawes Road, Munster Road and North End Road.

 

 

If you have any other specific questions or require more information with regards to the event, please contact the Fulham 10K office directly at 0207 227 0972 (Mon-Fri 09.30 – 17.00), email community@adidascityruns.com or visit the website on www.adidascityruns.com/fulham.

Supported by The Mayor of London’s Culture Seeds, The WoWC is a free, weekly, artistic expression project for women who are residents of White City Estate.

 

In the six painting workshops, participants can discover their creativity, build friendships, and share their stories through art in a fun and relaxed environment.

The mission of this social enterprise is to create a world where art galleries and museums reflect the diversity of the local population, and where self-expression through visual arts is available for all.

 

The WoWC project is part of The RENA Initiative’s commitment to establish art programs in disadvantaged communities, creating the opportunity for empowerment, inspiration and improved mental health and well-being.

 

The WoWC commences on Thursday 1st August 2019 at 10:30am – 12:30pm at White City Community Centre.
