After a two-year break, we’re thrilled to bring this much- loved event back to life with a fresh vision and renewed energy. As three passionate and experienced local race directors, we’ve joined forces to reimagine what this half marathon can be – not just as a race, but as a community celebration.
Having organised a number of events that inspire runners and bring people together, we’re committed to honoring the legacy of the Taunton Half Marathon while elevating it to new heights. Our goal is simple: to create a race that’s more than just a great run. It’s about creating moments that matter – on and off the course.
Who are Active South West?
Active South West was born from the combined expertise and passion of three seasoned local race directors. With years of experience organizing successful running events, we’ve joined forces to create a mass participation events company that goes beyond the ordinary. Our mission is to deliver unforgettable experiences that inspire people, unite communities and leave a lasting impact. Together we will set a new standard for energy, connection, and excellence in every event we bring to life.
Why should your business get involved?
Sponsoring the Taunton Half Marathon offers your business an incredible opportunity to connect with a highly engaged, health-conscious and community-focused audience. Not only will your brand be seen by thousands of runners and spectators on the day, but will also receive promotion through marketing campaigns leading up to the event.
We have partnership opportunities available for every kind of business! For companies that want to engage their local communities through powerful health and well-being messages.
Get your company running! Encouraging fitness in the workplace can be extremely beneficial across your business. Exercise releases endorphins, meaning employees can have more self-confidence and energy. It will also build camaraderie within the team.
There are many different ways to get involved! Your company could sponsor an event station, like water, aid or recovery, and get your team involved in volunteering. Stations can be set up with branded items, and you’ll be a direct positive influence on athletes and spectators on race day. It’s a great way to give something back and increase your presence in the local community.
