Inkberrow Relay Race Returns for 2026

We’re thrilled to announce that the much-loved Inkberrow Relay Race returns on Sunday 17th May 2026.

The much-loved Inkberrow Relay Race will return on Sunday 17th May 2026, bringing runners, families and supporters back together for one of Worcestershire’s most community-focused events.

Set in the heart of the village and surrounding countryside, the race follows its traditional relay format, with teams made up of individual runners each completing one leg of the course before handing over to the next teammate. The varied route combines road and rural sections, making it both scenic and competitive, equally appealing to experienced club runners and enthusiastic local teams.

The event is open to running clubs, workplace teams, groups of friends and community organisations, creating a fantastic mix of serious competition and village spirit. Over the years, the relay has built a reputation for being as welcoming as it is well-organised, with spectators lining parts of the course and a strong atmosphere at the start and finish area.

Prizes will once again be awarded across multiple categories, including overall team winners and category prizes, with further details to be confirmed closer to race day.

Importantly, all profits from the 2026 race will go directly to local charities and community causes, continuing a proud tradition of reinvesting back into the area.

The event is supported by Hills Ford, who have been involved since the very first race.

Richard Hill of Hills Ford said:

“The Inkberrow Relay is a brilliant example of what local community events should be about, bringing people together while raising meaningful funds for local charities.

We’ve supported it since the first race and are proud to continue that support in 2026. It’s a fantastic day for the village and the wider Worcestershire community.”

Entries are now officially open, and teams are encouraged to secure their place early for what promises to be another fantastic day of competition and community spirit.

MTCR Marketing Ltd T/A Hills Ford is an Appointed Representative of Automotive Compliance Ltd, who is authorised and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA No 497010). Automotive Compliance Ltd’s permissions as a Principal Firm allows MTCR Marketing Ltd T/A Hills Ford to act as a credit broker, not as a lender, for the introduction to a limited number of lenders and to act as an agent on behalf of the insurer for insurance distribution activities only (FRN: 1008486)

We can introduce you to a selected panel of lenders, which includes manufacturer lenders linked directly to the franchises that we represent. An introduction to a lender does not amount to independent financial advice and we act as their agent for this introduction. Our approach is to introduce you first to the manufacturer lender linked directly to the particular franchise you are purchasing your vehicle from, who are usually able to offer the best available package for you, taking into account both interest rates and other contributions. If they are unable to make you an offer of finance, we then seek to introduce you to whichever of the other lenders on our panel is able to make the next best offer of finance for you. Our aim is to secure the best deal you are eligible for from our panel of lenders. Lenders may pay a fixed commission to us for introducing you to them, calculated by reference to the vehicle model or amount you borrow. Different lenders may pay different commissions for such introductions, and manufacturer lenders linked directly to the franchises that we represent may also provide preferential rates to us for the funding of our vehicle stock and also provide financial support for our training and marketing. But any such amounts they and other lenders pay us will not affect the amounts you pay under your finance agreement, all of which are set by the lender concerned. If you ask us what the amount of commission is, we will tell you in good time before the Finance agreement is executed. All finance applications are subject to status, terms and conditions apply, UK residents only, 18’s or over. Guarantees may be required.
