The London Marathon is a very popular event and we are thrilled to have 5 places available to offer to our supporters.

We will then email an application form to you which needs to be completed and sent back to us by 31st July. We will be reviewing all applications and will inform you if you have been successful by the end of August.

Applications for our places are always oversubscribed, so please take the time to explain your motivations for wanting to run for the Charlie Waller Trust.

A Charlie Waller place costs £20 and we kindly ask our runners to raise a minimum of £2,500 in sponsorship.

We want to make sure that we provide you with all the support and encouragement needed to make this event an experience to remember. We want you to truly feel like you are a part of #TeamCharlieWaller.

As a runner with #TeamCharlieWaller we’ll give you:

• Support from our lovely office team and a dedicated contact
• Branded technical top (T-shirt or vest)
• Tips for achieving your fundraising target

We will use email to contact you and only ever call you if we need to discuss your application. 

We need your family and friends!

If your family and friends are planning on coming along to spectate, we would love for them to join our cheer squad! We’ll provide them with a t-shirt, flags, and noisemakers so it will be even easier for you to spot them along the route, for a much-needed boost of encouragement!

Our cheer team play a vital role in giving our runners the best experience possible. They help create a fantastic atmosphere and will feel rewarded knowing you’ve helped make a difference.

If any of your family or friends are interested in joining us on the day, please drop us an email to let us know they will be coming, and then bring them with you to the marquee before the race!

Join #TeamCharlieWaller using your own ballot place.

If you have already secured your own place for this event and would like to support us, please let us know by emailing fundraising@charliewaller.org .

This will allow us to get in touch with you to provide support and encouragement as well as to send you our branded Charlie Waller top. We want to be there for you as much as possible.
