Proudly Supporting Home & Family as the 2025 Charity of Choice

Are you ready Christchurch!

Every year, thousands of people come together to have fun & get active running Chirstchurch’s City2Surf epic course!

Unique Scenery.

A true city to surf, a course with amazing and unique scenery, and something you don’t want to miss out on!

We follow the picturesque Christchurch Avon River and the Otakaro trail, winding our way to Rawhiti Domain in New Brighton for an awesome City2Surf finish.

A scenic course like no other!

2025 Supporting Charity.

City2Surf is raising funds and awareness supporting “Home & Family” as the supporting charity for 2025.

As New Zealand’s second oldest charity, our services result in measurable change to ensure all children are safe, cherished and their potential is nurtured.

The need for family-focused, holistic, evidence-based services such as ours, is well documented:

  • Police in Canterbury receive a domestic violence call out every four minutes

  • Nearly half the people living in women’s refuges in Aotearoa are children

  • New Zealand has the highest youth suicide rate in the developed world
