The Colourthon
With over £1.6 million pledged to date benefitting over 700 charities, the Colourthon is one of the top fundraising events in Essex! We believe the key to its success has been the fact that walkers can raise sponsorship for ANY registered charity of their choice.
The Colourthon is two events in one, the Moonlight walk being a half marathon and the Twilight a 10k challenge.
Both events are FUN walks around Southend by night with the emphasis being on FUN and FUNDRAISING! Everyone is encouraged to dress as brightly as their imaginations will allow! Remember, there will be spot prizes for those who impress us with their costumes!
Besides the obvious fun of dressing up, the walks serve highlight the many worthy causes represented by our walkers in full and spectacular colour!
So why not get involved and experience the great atmosphere together with all the sights, sounds and smells of the seaside by night.

Be a Steward
The Colourthon is organised totally on a voluntary basis and without doubt, one of the key roles is that of an Event Steward; quite simply, regardless of all the planning, the event would simply not be possible without them, so why not sign up to be one of our wonderful stewards and help cheer everyone along, well, what are you waiting for?
