Story

Open to children aged 5 to 16, the Hospice Mini Marathon offers a wonderful opportunity for families to come together and enjoy a day of walking, running, or jogging in the scenic Royal Greenwich Park.

In 2023, an incredible 900 children took part and collectively raised over £45,000 to support the families we care for.

Registration fees are £10 per child, which includes a JLL sponsored Goodie Bag and a Hospice Mini Marathon medal!

Registration fees help cover the costs of running this event so every penny of sponsorship you can raise makes a significant difference to the comfort and well-being of our patients and their families. We invite you to create a fundraising page and help us maximise the difference we can make to families. Click here to request a free Fundraising Pack!

Here's a glimpse of the incredible difference you are making:

A donation of £10 could provide soothing essential oils, offering comfort and relief to patients experiencing symptoms.

With £20, you could contribute to a meaningful session crafting a memory box for a patient, a heartfelt gift to be cherished by their loved ones.

Your £30 donation could help fund an hour of specialized care from a hospice at-home nurse. These nursing visits play a crucial role in allowing patients to remain at home with their families, making every moment matter.

If you’re raising funds in memory of a loved one, please contact us as we’d love to support you with your fundraising.

A heartfelt thank you to our headline sponsors JLL for their continued support.

Let’s make the 2024 Hospice Mini Marathon a memorable day of giving, joy, and community!
