This year’s Fun Run is being held at 11.00 am on Bank Holiday Monday 4th May 2026. The event is open to everyone and involves running (or walking) as many laps as possible in one hour starting at 11.00 am around a measured 1-mile circuit centred on the Felixstowe Spa Pavilion. All runners will receive an attractive colour commemorative certificate at the end of their run. It is an opportunity for runners to seek sponsorships to raise money for their club, society or deserving cause of their choice. Entry fees are £7 for adults and £5 for 16s and under. These fees go towards supporting local deserving causes as determined by the Rotary Club of Felixstowe.
We encourage running groups, clubs and individuals to sign up early for what promises to be an enjoyable and exciting morning. Those who are willing to run in Fancy Dress have a chance to win cash prizes of £60, £45, £30 and £15 for the four most eye-catching entrants. The prizes are sponsored by Ruby's and the Mayor will be judging and awarding the prizes.
On Fun Run day, all registered entrants need to collect their vest running numbers (between 9.30 and 11.00 am) from the registration desks on the stage of the Spa Theatre, accessed through the stage doors at the rear of the theatre. Team leaders should collect their whole teams' vest running numbers, safety pins and memento certificates from the Spa Theatre stage. It will be the responsibility of the team leaders to pass these on to all entrants in their team.
'What We Do' Main Pages:
Each year we run five high profile fundraising events to support our work in the local community and beyond. Last Rotary Year (2022/23) we raised almost £60,000. That will take some beating!
moreThanks to Andrew Rowdon, Youth Development lead, we have an established programme including Community Cup with ITFC, Climbing with Clip ‘n Climb, and Kids Kitchen with the Yeo Group. Fun, but also an opportunity to build confidence in a new environment.
moreWe may be best known for our fundraising events in the local community. But it's not all work and no play and we also pride ourselves on our fun and fellowship. No wonder we have a steady stream of new members and some well deserved awards.
moreAlthough our activities are severely curtailed and we are longing to get back to some sort of normal, the life of the club continues online. Here we see the handover to our new President Dougie Pipe and (below) the induction of new member Jed Payce.
