About Redditch Community Runners
Founded in 2024 by a group of eight passionate runners, Redditch Community Runners (RCR) is a welcoming and inclusive running group for all abilities. Our mission is simple: to help people enjoy running in Redditch and the surrounding areas – while making friends along the way.
Join the RCR family
Since launching, we’ve quickly grown into a vibrant community of over 100 runners in our Facebook community. We meet regularly throughout the week, with sessions held at various times and locations across Redditch and nearby villages. We love running around Redditch, there are plenty of great route for beginners and experienced runners.
Whether it’s a morning run from Abbey Stadium or an evening run around Arrow Valley Lake, there’s something to suit everyone.
Our Run Leaders
All our sessions are led by England Athletics qualified Leaders in Running Fitness (LiRFs) who are dedicated to making your runs safe, supportive, and enjoyable.
