Fundraising

🍰 Who are we supporting?

The Clyst Hydon Huff is of course a charity event. All money raised will be distributed between the village swimming pool, hall, primary school and cricket club. This year we are also thrilled to be supporting and donating to Devon Air Ambulance, our local life saving service.  

By taking part in the Clyst Hydon Huff, you’re directly supporting key pillars of our village. Your entry fee goes towards maintaining and improving these vital community spaces, ensuring they continue to benefit local residents and the wider community for years to come.

Every runner contributes to these causes just by signing up, so lace up your trainers, enjoy the race, and know that you’re making a difference!

Thank you for being part of something special! 💙
