The Harriers is the Rolls-Royce Running Club, which has been in existence for over 100 years. We welcome runners of all levels and ability.

We are affiliated to England Athletics, which provides running club members the benefit of reduced entry fees for races that they enter. 

​We organise our own 10km race, plus two cross-country races and participate in two winter cross-country leagues. In addition we hold a series of track races during the summer season and enter teams in various regional/national athletics and running events.

​Membership is £30 per year from 2025 which includes your personal affiliation to England Athletics and your entry fee for the four events that Rolls-Royce Harriers organise (£6 for second claim members and non-competitors).
