Fundraising with Edinburgh Leisure
We believe physical activity and sport have the power to change lives but we can’t do it without your support.
Whether you’re looking for fundraising ideas or need help with your own fundraising event, we’ve got you covered. Find out below how you can play your part in creating a happier, healthier and more active Edinburgh.
Edinburgh Marathon Festival – May 2025
With full marathon, half marathon, ‘Hairy Haggis’ team relay, 10K, 5K, and junior races, there is something for everyone at Scotland’s biggest running festival.
Run for Edinburgh Leisure and raise funds towards our Active Communities programme, supporting over 12,500 people every year who face barriers to being active.
Edinburgh Kiltwalk – September 2025
Edinburgh Leisure’s Kiltwalkers in 2024 enjoyed a fun and supportive atmosphere whilst pounding the pavement for 5, 11 and 20 miles on the biggest ever Edinburgh Kiltwalk – and raised over £17,000 in support of our Ageing Well project which helps older adults be active.
Join us for the 2025 event.

The fundraising possibilities are endless from fun runs, bake sales and sports tournaments.
