Midlands Air Ambulance Charity Sponsor Cannock Chase Running Festival

Thursday 24th April 2025

 

 

Midlands Air Ambulance Charity was delighted to be the headline sponsor of Cannock Chase Running Festival, which took place on 13th April 2025, in Cannock Chase Forest, Staffordshire.

A team from Midlands Air Ambulance Charity joined other runners to take on the challenge, alongside a group from M6toll - whose support of Midlands Air Ambulance Charity enabled the charity to become the festival’s headline sponsor. The festival, which took place on Sunday morning, hosted a range of different events including a Half Marathon, a 10K, 5K and a juniors race. The first 50 participants that signed up with Midlands Air Ambulance Charity also received a free runner’s vest from the charity.

Jo Bailey, events lead at Midlands Air Ambulance Charity, said: “It was great to see so many runners turn out for Cannock Chase Running Festival this weekend and to welcome members of our own team who took part in the races. The festival is an iconic event in the Midlands so it was fantastic to be involved as headline sponsor. A huge thank you to M6toll for helping to make this possible.”

As long-time supporters of Midlands Air Ambulance Charity, M6toll offered free return trips on the M6toll road for any runner taking part on the day, helping to ensure all participants arrived on time for their races.

Maxine Estevez, Communications Manager at M6toll, said: “We were thrilled to support this year’s Cannock Chase Running Festival alongside our long-standing partners at Midlands Air Ambulance Charity, and were so proud to cheer on members of our own team as they took part in the races. It was fantastic to engage with so many runners and spectators, sharing the benefits of the M6toll and our breeze account, while also offering event participants a free return trip on the M6toll—providing them with a fast, reliable route option."
