Bognor 10k 2020 event cancellation due to COVID-19

​

It is with disappointment that due to the Coronavirus pandemic, we have decided to cancel the Bognor Prom 10k event, which was due to take place on 17th May 2020.  We can assure you that we did not take this decision lightly. Prior to making the final decision, we did consider whether postponing the event to later in the year would be viable, however due to a great number of other events having been postponed, it has meant that the race calendar for 2020 has become busy and too compressed for the end of the season.

​

Our priority is to protect the health and wellbeing of everyone involved as well as limit further expenditure.  At this point, we would like to thank our amazing volunteers, partners and sponsors for their commitment and continued support. 

 

Our aim is to organise another great event in 2021.

 

All things considered, we would like to offer our current 2020 entrants a choice with their registration and entry fee as follows:

 

Bognor Prom 10k & Wheelchair/Disabled entrants

​

1. A full deferral to 2021. Date tbc. This means we would transfer your entry to next year.

2. You can opt for a part refund of £10 back to you from your original entry fee.  If you wish to take part in 2021, you would have to re-register.

​

Fun Run entrants

​

1. Cancellation of your 2020 registration, and a part refund of £2.50 back to you from your original entry fee.

​

We would ask that ALL entrants use the form below to indicate their preferred option by 24th April 2020.

​

If we do not hear from you by then, we will assume that you have chosen to defer your 2021 registration and your entry fee will not be refunded. 

 

Refunds will be processed shortly after the 27th April 2020.

​

We apologise for disappointing those concerned, but the health and safety of all involved is paramount at this time. As ever, we will continue to work tirelessly to bring Bognor Regis another major event in 2021.
