We are delighted to announce Caravan Guard as the main event sponsor for the long awaited return of the Colour Run, one of our biggest and most colourful events of the summer attracting over 1,200 participants.
 
The Colour Run is a family-friendly 5k event which takes place on Saturday 9th July at Savile Park, Halifax. The participants will be showered with coloured paint as they run, skip, dance or walk around the course.
 
Bazz from Bazzmatazz Dance Studio will return as event host and warm up the crowd as well as bringing back The Colour Run Cuddle, a lovely moment to remember loved ones no longer with us.
He will then close the event with the Colour Party.
 
This year’s Colour Station sponsors are Rosehills Highways, Brook Miller Mobility, Core Facilities and Hystat. Each sponsor will bring a team along to one of the four colour stations positioned around the route, and will cover the runners in paint.
 
Michelle Wood, Events Fundraiser at Overgate Hospice said: “We are really excited for this year’s event, having had to cancel the last two years due to the pandemic, and are delighted to have a local company as our main event sponsor. Caravan Guard’s financial input will help us cover the administrative costs involved in putting on the event so that more money raised through sponsorship can go direct to frontline care at the Hospice.
 
We cannot thank our volunteers and sponsors enough for their support as without them this event wouldn’t be able to go ahead! We are thrilled to have so many of you signed up already and cannot wait to see you on the day!
 
Halifax-based Caravan Guard are specialists in caravan, motorhome and holiday caravan insurance and have been a long-term supporter of Overgate Hospice and one of their company values is “care completely.”
 
Caravan Guard’s Associate Director Laura Wilby said: “We’re thrilled the Colour Run is back on the Overgate Hospice fundraising calendar and are proud to be the sponsoring this fantastic event. We can’t wait to help add a splash of colour to all the kind-hearted runners as they raise vital funds for our local hospice. Care completely is one of our company values and as a corporate sponsor of Overgate we love to help make a positive difference to the community.
