Run for Scottish Refugee Council at the Edinburgh Marathon Festival 2026!

By joining #TeamSRC you’ll help support people forced to flee war, persecution and human rights abuses.

We are an independent charity providing vital advice, information and advocacy to refugees in Scotland. We campaign for a fair asylum system and for welcoming, inclusive communities.

In a climate where refugees face increasing hostility, our work has never been more needed and your solidarity has never been more vital. Last year alone, we supported 517 people facing homelessness and extreme hardship, helping those seeking safety to access legal support, mental health services, food and clothing.

Your fundraising ensures we can continue delivering life-changing support throughout the asylum journey and stand up for people’s rights. Many of our services are under-resourced - and that’s where your support makes all the difference.

Whether it’s your first 5K or a marathon, every step you take sends a message of compassion and welcome to people when they need it most.

Run with us. Support those starting again – for a fairer, kinder Scotland for everyone.
