Sold out Ipswich Twilight 10K announces support of Inspire

24 May 2018

Ipswich Building Society and Ipswich Jaffa has announced that this year’s sold out Ipswich Twilight 10K event will once again be in aid of Inspire! We have been the race charity for the past 2 years so are delighted to have been chosen once again.

We will receive 10 complimentary spaces for runners who commit to fundraising for our charity, which supports local young people to overcome challenges onto a positive future and offers a range of sports across the country. The Ipswich Building Society Twilight 10k is a mass participation run organised by Ipswich JAFFA in association with Ipswich Borough Council, Ipswich Building Society and Suffolk New College with the aim of beating the sunset. Now in its fourth year, the races attract over 1,500 runners to the streets of Ipswich and is sold out, so the only places remaining are our Inspire’s charity spaces.

Runners who decide to run for us will receive dedicated support from our fundraising team and a charity t-shirt. We are asking runners to raise a minimum of £150 and are also welcoming businesses to get involved in the challenge too.

Race Director, Carl Ashton, commented:

“I am pleased to congratulate Inspire on their re-appointment as our official charity partner. I hope many of our runners will consider supporting this local charity, and urge anyone who missed out on a place to get in touch with them.”


Inspire is a charity dedicated to supporting young people onto a positive future and are independently funded so rely on their fundraisers and grants. We provide motivational personal development programmes, education courses and engaging sport activities that local young people may not otherwise have access to.
