Hospice UK Charity Place

Registration Fee £100
Fundraising target £2,200 (excl. Gift Aid)

If you would like to join our team for the 2026 TCS London Marathon, simply apply today through our online application form making sure you select the 'charity place' option.

If your application is successful for 2026, we will then ask you to pay a non-refundable £100 registration fee and commit to raising a minimum of £2,200 (excluding Gift Aid.) 

Tips for Applying

To ensure your application is as strong as possible, please include as much information as you can about why you would like to join #TeamHospiceUK and your plans for both training and fundraising before race day. 

Have you got your own place?

If you are one of lucky ones to secure your own place through the official London Marathon Ballot, or if you have a Good For Age place, we would love for you to join our team as an own place runner and raise money for hospice care.

Simply complete our online application form, making sure to select the ‘own place’ option. You'll receive all the same support as a charity place runner, however you will have no minimum fundraising target. We just ask you to raise what you can.
