With just over a month to go to the annual Nightingale House Hospice Alyn Waters 5k and 10k Run, the event’s main sponsor is urging the local community to sign up and make it the most successful yet.

Leading Wrexham and Oswestry law firm GHP Legal is again sponsoring the medals for the event, which is due to take place in the Alyn Waters Country Park on 18th April 2026.

Known for its support of local charitable sporting events, GHP Legal entered its own team of more than 30 last year and is hoping to see even more participants this year to increase the funds raised for Nightingale House Hospice.

Euros Jones, a partner at GHP Legal said:

“There is still time for training at any level. The event is designed to be inclusive and welcoming, so whether you want to run, jog, shuffle or just enjoy a relaxed walk in beautiful countryside, please come along.

“There is something for everyone and we would love to see individuals, families, workplace teams and community groups getting involved.

“Every entry and every pound raised helps to support a truly wonderful local cause. All sponsorship goes directly towards patient care, while entry fees help cover event costs to maximise the benefit to the hospice.”

The run starts from the Llay side of Alyn Waters and features a 5k and 10k route. Minimum age requirements are 11+ for the 5k and 15+ for the 10k. A children’s dash will also be available to register for on the day. For further information go to www.nightingalehouse.co.uk/events

GHP Legal, which has offices in Wrexham, Oswestry and Llangollen, is also supporting three other sporting events in March; the Brynkinalt Running Festival and Canicross Trail Running on 14th and 15th March, and the Welshpool 10k on 22nd March.
