Empowering Our Community: At Herne Hill Harriers, we believe in providing opportunities and purpose to individuals of all ages, from 11 to 80, within our diverse local community. We ensure that children from all backgrounds have equal access to training and competition, fostering a sense of focus and achievement. Through initiatives like our Save the Track campaign, individuals like Jade, Katie, and Krystal have shared their experiences, underscoring the transformative impact our programs have had on their lives. Moreover, we extend support to families who may face financial constraints, assisting them with travel expenses and essential kit.
Strengthening Community Bonds: The Tooting Run Club outreach program has touched the lives of numerous individuals, offering training, community engagement, and invaluable mental health benefits. Testimonials from program participants affirm the positive impact of our outreach efforts. Collaborating with local schools, such as through the Athletics Academy, we promote athletics and provide ongoing support to aspiring young athletes. Partnerships with Lambeth and Wandsworth Councils further reinforce our commitment to nurturing athletic talent within the community.

Our events attract international talent, solidifying our reputation as a premier athletics club in London. From hosting prestigious competitions like the British Milers Club events to being the sole athletics club within walking distance of the Tooting Bec tube station, our legacy of excellence endures.
