About this event
What is Mental Elf?
Mental Elf is a family fun run taking place on Sunday 30th November at 11.30am (registration opens at 10.30am) in the beautiful Victoria Park in Leicester City.
Hosted by Leicester, Leicestershire and Rutland Mind, it will be full of festive fun while raising awareness of mental health and much needed funds to support people with poor mental health. We are your local Mind, providing mental health support and services across the Leicester, Leicestershire and Rutland communities.
Kickstart the festive season by joining us for our Mental Elf fun run, suitable for all the family (well behaved dogs welcome) and is open to all abilities and ages*. The Mental Elf fun run will be approximately 5km long around the beautiful Victoria Park and can be completed at a run or walk pace. Feel free to take your time as the most important thing is everyone has fun!
Why not find your inner elf and don an elf costume or hat and get into the festive spirit?
The Leicester University Student Union located just a few minutes walk from the start and finish line will be open from 10:30am-3.30pm for registration, refreshments, and use of the toilet facilities.
