Welcome to Orion Harriers
We are a friendly, running club, suitable for all ages and all abilities, based in North Chingford, on the edge of Epping Forest. We have a membership of over 300 runners, comprising of women and men aged from 18 – 80, plus a vibrant juniors section with 300 members. Whether your ambition is to run competitively or just jog to get fit and meet new friends, Orion Harriers is the club for you!
Club House Extension
As everyone is probably aware we are proposing to extend the clubhouse to provide larger and improved changing facilities and communal areas to cope with current membership numbers and predicted growth.
