Biggin Hill Sunrise Challenge 2026 - HS Walsh & Sons

Following on from our efforts last summer, we're again taking part in the Biggin Hill Airport Sunrise Challenge on Saturday 20th June 2026.  The event is a 5k run along the runway at the break of dawn!

Our HS Walsh run & volunteer team has grown!  Denise, Julian, Mark, Sue and I are taking part in the run and Sara is joining us as a motivational volunteer out on the course!

The event, organised by Biggin Hill Airport, sees the runway handed over to over 400 runners before it opens to the air traffic, all whilst raising funds for the airport's charity partners: The RAF Benevolent Fund, Scotty's Little Soldiers and Aerobility.

Last year we raised over £400 as a team and the event in total almost £10k so it would be amazing to achieve this again.

Thank you so much for your support.  Team HSW.

When a parent dies, the impact on their child is significant. When that parent served in the Armed Forces, the impact is even greater with children often feeling they’ve lost their connection to the military community. Scotty’s Little Soldiers prevents that. Together, we can ensure the very best bereavement support remains available.
