Fun Run UK is a free to set up platform built for schools, PTAs and volunteer-led groups running fun runs, colour runs, sponsored walks and more. Everything is handled in one simple flow. No paper forms, no spreadsheets, no cash to chase after the event.
Why PTAs should use Fun Run UK
1. Free to set up, simple to run
There are no setup costs and no contracts. Create your event page in minutes, share one link with families, and everything from online sign-ups to entry fee collection is handled in one place.
2. Every participant gets their own sponsorship page
Personal sponsorship pages typically raise more than a generic event page. With Fun Run UK, each participant gets a personal page to share with family and friends. You can customise this page with your own message and an image.
3. Secure online payments into your bank account
Supporters pay online at the moment they are asked. No cash, no paper forms, no forgotten promises. Gift Aid is captured automatically where eligible. Payments are securely managed by Stripe, the global payments processor.
4. Less admin, a clearer total
Organisers can keep track of sign ups and sponsorship raised, all in one dashboard. There’s no reconciling spreadsheets or chasing cash after the event.

Simple, transparent pricing
Fun Run UK is free to set up. There are no monthly fees, no subscriptions and no contracts. We charge a small platform fee on entry fees only: 3.5% per entry, plus standard Stripe card-processing charges (1.5% + 20p per transaction). There is no platform fee on sponsorship. Supporters are offered an optional tip at the point of giving to help cover the cost of running the platform. They can change the amount or skip it entirely. Gift Aid declarations are captured automatically at the point of giving, adding 25% to eligible donations. Read more at: fun-run.co.uk/pricing
