Other Running Opportunities
We offer charity places in a number of exciting 2027 marathon events, including:

What Happens Next?
We will be contacting successful applicants a few days after the London Marathon public ballot results are announced in July 2026.
If you’re fortunate enough to secure a place through the public ballot for the London Marathon 2027, we’d be absolutely delighted to welcome you to our running team. You’ll receive the same fantastic support as our charity place runners — including training tips and dedicated fundraising guidance — while making a meaningful difference to hospice care in your community.
If you gain a ballot place, please let us know by emailing events@gbch.org.uk.
