More than 600 supporters walked, ran, and skipped their way around Taunton Racecourse to raise vital funds for St Margaret's Hospice on Saturday 20 May.

Families across Somerset rocked an array of colourful outfits, tutus, and fancy dress, with glitter face paint and bright accessories to take on St Margaret's Colour Run Remix. The scene was an explosion of colour as volunteers showered participants in vibrant powder paint, glitter, and foam as they took on two laps of Taunton Racecourse with many sprinting to the end to collect their coveted Colour Run Remix medals.

Tributes were seen throughout the day as family and friends gathered to raise money and celebrate lives.

Ellie Weston, Marketing and Events Officer at St Margaret's, said: "We're so proud of our amazing supporters who bought an incredible energy to Taunton Racecourse for St Margaret's Hospice. It was fantastic to see so many families enjoy a fun day out to raise funds to support patient care.

"Sponsorship is still coming in but, the money we've raised so far could pay for 400 family sessions with a specialist counsellor at St Margaret's. This is an essential service where families can talk about their feelings before and after bereavement and it makes a real difference.

"We'd also like to say a massive thank you to our event sponsors Mogers Drewett, Avalon Plastics and Amicus Law, as well as Clarke Wilmott and Evosite who supported us on the day with volunteers. We can't wait to see everyone again at our upcoming events."
