RIA Member – TrailFam
TrailFam is a charity dedicated to transforming the lives of young people through trail running. Our mission is to make trail running accessible, inclusive, and empowering for young people from all backgrounds and walks of life. We believe that everyone should have the opportunity to experience the physical and mental benefits of running in nature, regardless of their starting point. Bridging the gap in resources and accessibility is at the heart of what we do, ensuring that trail running is open to those who might not otherwise have the chance to take part.
We believe that trail running is more than just a sport—it’s a tool for wellbeing, social connection, and personal growth. Through our work, we not only help young runners improve their fitness but also introduce them to opportunities in coaching, outdoor leadership, and the wider running industry. Our long-term vision is to build a thriving, nationwide community of young trail runners who grow into future custodians of our natural spaces. By inspiring a love for the trails from an early age, we aim to ensure the long-term health and prosperity of this incredible sport for generations to come.
