Britain's What's On Event Guide
Where's Wally? Fun Run
The Where’s Wally? Fun Run is a race like no other. Dress up as beloved fictional character Where’s Wally and join together with friends, family or colleagues and walk, jog or run your own route to support our work changing life stories through literacy throughout the country. Fun for all the family (including furry friends!), the Where’s Wally? Fun Run is a great way to support the vital work of the National Literacy Trust.
With the funds you raise, we can empower children who are facing the biggest disadvantages in life with the literacy skills they need for a brighter future. More than 1 in 4 11-year-olds left primary school not achieving the expected level in reading this year, which can have a huge knock-on effect for the rest of their lives, from getting the job they want to even navigating everyday life, as well as impacting their confidence and self-esteem.
Help us give these children the tools they need to change their story, by getting your stripes and running shoes on and being a Wally for the day.
