Sponsor the Cocking 10k.
We’re enormously grateful to our race sponsors every year who help to make The Cocking 10k such an enormous success.
Our not-for-profit race is organised by volunteers from Midhurst Milers. We charge a race entry fee to competitors, but entry fees on their own don’t cover the cost of putting on the event. Our outgoings include trophies and medals, prizes, first aid cover, chip timing, PA systems, fees to landowners, signage, race numbers, portable loos and lots, lots more… .
We’d love to hear from you if you’d like to sponsor The Cocking 10k. In addition to supporting the race, there are many ways that sponsorship can benefit your business, including brand exposure, marketing and tax benefits.
