The National Running Show is proud to announce the winners of its 2026 Community and Elite Grants, recognising the clubs and athletes making a real difference to running at every level.
Four grassroots groups have been awarded a Community Grant to running groups breaking down barriers to participation and helping more people discover the sport:
Deaf Run Club
PTR Juniors
Preston Girls Run
The Roots
Two athletes have been awarded an Elite Grant, to support the specialist equipment, coaching and travel that help them compete at the highest level:
Rebecca Grieve
Taylor-Von Massey
Applications for both schemes closed in September, with shortlisted applicants put forward to an independent judging panel for the final decisions.
We would like to thank everyone who applied, and the independent judging panel for making some very tough calls.
Congratulations to all of this year's winners. We can't wait to follow their journeys
