By answering a few questions, you're helping us ensure the spaces are awarded to runners who are genuinely committed to fundraising, sharing our mission, and making a meaningful difference to improving our hospitals.

The fundraising target for this event is £3000 excluding gift aid. You will receive full support from a designated member of the fundraising team along with fundraising resources.
