London Marathon 2025

Run for Willen Hospice in the London Marathon

We’ve been amazed by the high number of applications we’ve received, applications for London Marathon charity places and now closed.

Fundraising

In return for your charity place we ask you to fundraise a minimum amount of £2500 to help us care for local families. You can download our fundraising pack and sponsorship form to get you started. Make sure to email challenges@willen-hospice.org.uk and we’ll give you a Willen Hospice t-shirt to train and run in on the big day.
