Welcome to The Esther Benjamins Trust's running events microsite

The Esther Benjamins Trust rescues Nepalese children who have been trafficked or displaced into India - including many who were sold into Indian circuses and forced to work as performers.

We offer refuge and rehabilitation to rescued children and young people who cannot be returned to their families for fear of being re-trafficked. Our refuges offer access to a full education and a range of vocational training opportunities.

Via the tabs on the left you can learn more about each of our running events for 2012. With the Olympic Games being staged in London, 2012 promises to be a very special year for athletics and running events in the UK.

Join us and make sure you mark the year by doing something very special for Nepal's most vulnerable children and young people.
