Did you get a place in the TCS London Marathon ballot? Here’s what to do if you did or if you didn’t…

This year, a world record breaking 840,318 people entered the ballot to get a place in next year’s TCS London Marathon. Today is the day when they find out if they were successful or not.

Have you got a place?

If so, congratulations! Although you don’t need to raise money for charity with a secured place, we would love you to consider being part of Team Weldmar at next year’s world famous race.

• You can set your own fundraising target
• You’ll get support with training advice and fundraising from our team
• You’ll benefit from mutual support and encouragement from other people running for Weldmar
• We’ll supply a running vest with your name on, so you can wear the blue and green colours of Weldmar, just like Diana, pictured above!

If you would like to support Weldmar, please contact our Fundraising team.

Did you miss out on a place?

Don’t worry – you certainly weren’t the only one!

Weldmar Hospicecare has a limited number of Gold Bond places, and we’re welcoming applications for places until the end of August.

With a Gold Bond place, we ask you to raise an achievable target of £1,700 in sponsorship, and you’ll get all of the other benefits listed above.

To apply for a Gold Bond place, please complete our application form.

However you end up running for Weldmar in the 2025 TCS London Marathon, we look forward to supporting you from the moment you sign up, and cheering you on the day!
