We are a friendly 2 lap, undulating parkrun on trail paths in Ashfield - 5 minutes from junction 28 of the M1. We have free car parking, toilets, a cafe and a children’s playground all near the start/finish. Don’t forget your barcode!

I ❤️ Brierley Forest parkrun. It's a proper hub of the local community, everyone knows each other, it's so warm and friendly.

I gave it my best, my sister smashed it, my Mum walked, and her friends just had a chat on the way round.

Now everyone is in the cafe. Perfect 🤌🏻

🌞 It's looking like the weather will be perfect on Saturday for our birthday bash for Brierley Forest Park! 😎

We have free face painting, arts and crafts, a nature trail, wild crafts from 11.30am - 1.30pm

The Brierley Cafe will have plenty of treats & cold drinks 🎂🦋

Next Saturday - October 14th - our parkrun will be partnering with @foodcycle - they will be coming down to collect any of the suggested food items you can donate!

Hope you’ll get behind this and show what an awesome community we have here down at Brierley! 🧡

Today marks 19 years of Saturday morning walks and runs 🎉🎈

Paul Sinton-Hewitt, the founder of parkrun, describes the early stages of parkrun with only 13 runners, before it became the global success that it is today! Proving we must all walk before we can run 🏃
