LandAid is hosting two summer fundraising events for property professionals across the country in an effort to raise more than £250,000 of vital funds for young homeless people.
The LandAid 10k run will be held live in Regent’s Park in London on Tuesday 24 May, for the first time since 2019, as well as virtually.
The Tour de LandAid will take place from 1 to 24 July, with teams of up to six people working together to cycle as far as possible during the 23-day Tour de France. All teams and participants will compete to win awards, including furthest distance and greatest elevation achieved.

Allsop is the headline sponsor of the LandAid 10k event, and Carter Jonas is the official sponsor of the Tour de LandAid event.
Paul Morrish, chief executive of LandAid, said: “Youth homelessness continues to be massive problem in the UK, with 122,000 young people in the last year alone approaching their local authority for help because they were at risk of losing their home, but it’s a problem that the property industry is uniquely equipped to help support.
“Today, as we launch the LandAid 10k and Tour de LandAid, we are calling upon as many people in the industry as possible to run, walk or cycle with us, to raise funds to go towards projects and charities focusing on solutions to youth homelessness.
“Whether you are competitive, want to try something new or just want to do some more exercise, this is a great opportunity to get involved this summer and help create meaningful social change.”
