Why choose the London Marathon?

The TCS London Marathon is one of the most iconic running events in the world. Join thousands of runners in this popular 26.2 mile race and enjoy being cheered on around the course whilst taking in some of London’s most famous landmarks.

Run for Team UNICEF

Applications for our charity places are now closed. If you’ve submitted an application, we’ll be in touch soon to let you know if you’ve been successful.

Got your own place?

Been lucky in the ballot? We’d love for you to run for us. There’s no fundraising target, just raise whatever you can.  Please get in touch to let us know. Then head to our 2024 #TeamUNICEF marathon page on JustGiving to start fundraising.

Why should I join Team UNICEF? 

However you choose to join Team UNICEF, we’ll support you every step of the way. You’ll receive:

  • Access to a full range of digital materials to help you promote your fundraising.
  • Support via regular emails in the lead up to the big day, including information about the impact of your fundraising.
  • A free UNICEF technical running vest or t-shirt for you to wear with pride on the day.

Your fundraising through the TCS London Marathon will make a huge difference for children around the world. £2,000 in sponsorship could:

  • Deliver lifesaving diphtheria, tetanus and whooping cough vaccines for 10,000 children.
  • Pay for school supplies, helping at least 575 children continue their education in an emergency.
  • Provide life-saving therapeutic food which could save 50 children from deadly severe acute malnutrition.
