COVID-19 Statement
Keeping you and our community safe
The safety of runners, spectators, volunteers and local residents remains our number one priority for the Pudding Run 2022. This race is a long-standing event in everyone’s calendar and one of the most popular road races in the area. The event is also the biggest fundraiser for St. Nicholas’ School here in Bromham and it is the Pudding Run Team’s ambition to make this year an incredible success.
What might be changing for the 2022 Pudding Run?
Our initial modelling of our event, together with the unfortunate fire at the Social Centre means we need to operate the event slightly differently for this year. The race itself however will be maintained as the same exciting race.

Cancellations and Refunds
As we cannot obtain event cancellation insurance for infectious disease, if we have to cancel the race because of coronavirus we will only be able to offer partial refunds, based on the costs already invested to date in the race production.
We will update you as our plans develop, after ongoing stakeholder consultations. Further details will be confirmed as we near the Race and in good time before the event.
