LET'S LIFT THE CURFEW 2026

This November, communities across the country are coming together to support Let's Lift the Curfew — a national initiative from Sport England's This Girl Can campaign, supported by England Athletics.
The campaign shines a light on the barriers women face when exercising outdoors after dark, including concerns about personal safety that can affect when, where and how they choose to be active.

Every woman should feel free to run, walk and exercise outdoors without fear limiting her choices.

This is an opportunity for our local community to stand together, raise awareness and show that creating safer, more inclusive outdoor spaces is something we all have a part to play in.

Meet at Deal Pier

Monday 2nd November 2026 6:00pm

Bring your head torches, wear hi-vis and bright colours, and help light up Deal!

Whether you run regularly, are new to exercise, walk for fitness or simply want to show your support, everyone is welcome. This is about community, visibility and making a positive difference — not pace or performance.

Let's get out together, get people talking and show our support for women and girls who want to enjoy being active outdoors, all year round.

Let's make ourselves seen. Let's stand together.

Let's Lift the Curfew.

WHAT CAN THE RUN DO FOR YOU?

Running isn’t just about pace, PBs, medals or how far you can go.

Sometimes, running is so much more than that.

😔 Feeling sad? — Go for a run.
😰 Feeling worried? — Go for a run.
😡 Feeling angry? — Go for a run.
🧠 Overthinking everything? — Go for a run.
🔋 Feeling like you’ve got nothing left? — Go for a run.
🌧️ Having a bad day? — Go for a run.
💔 Feeling lonely? — Go for a run.

You might not come back with all the answers…

But you might come back with a clearer head, a better mindset and a little more belief in yourself.

The best thing about running?

Same feet… different mindset. 🩷🤍🩵

You don’t have to be fast.
You don’t have to run far.
You don’t even have to be training for a race.

Just get out there and move.

Because you never know what that run might do for you.
