A fun and family friendly evening event is returning this Autumn to light up two beauty spots in North Wales.
The popular Dark Run events are a 5km jog, walk or dance along specially lit courses as darkness falls at Penrhyn Castle near Bangor and Conwy RSPB and guarantee a night of giggles and ghouls.
Participants are encouraged to wear super bright or even spooky costumes and will be given a large flashing glow stick to carry around the courses past the historic castles which will be drenched in coloured lights.
Organised by local children’s hospice charity Hope House Tŷ Gobaith, every penny raised will go to supporting seriously ill children and their families.
There’ll be a group warm-up by fitness professionals, music and fantastic support along the way with a free goody bag and bespoke medal for all taking part.
Event organisers Vanessa Marubbi and Nicky Eyes said: “We just can’t wait to welcome all of our fantastic fun-loving supporters and make some memories at these special locations.
“Huge thanks to the National Trust, RSPB and CADW for their generosity and to all our sponsors who help make these great nights happen.
“Don’t miss out, sign up with family, friends or colleagues and make it a night to remember whilst helping us to continue making quality moments for local children and families living with life-limiting conditions.”
Entry is only £5 for children and £10 for adults.
The Penrhyn Castle event takes place on Saturday 19th October at 6pm and you can register here.
The Conwy RSPB event is on Saturday 26th October at 6pm and you can register here.
