Hundreds of people have signed up for the first ever St Luke’s Colour Run on Saturday.

The colour run is a 5km route which you can complete in any way you like - whether that is running, skipping or dancing – with one condition: that you have fun.

Wearing white t-shirts, participants start the route fresh and clean but are showered with luminous paint powder as they go around, finishing in a messy rainbow of bright colours.

The colour run starts at 10.30am at the Bannister Stadium, on Uxbridge Road, with all proceeds going towards St Luke’s Hospice.

You can still register in person on the day but online registration is now closed.

Adults cost £20 and children under 16 cost £10.
