How do I get a place on the London Marathon 2013?

There are two ways to become a part of the Womankind Worldwide 2013 London Marathon team.

1) Apply for a Womankind Worldwide charity place

With one of our charity places you’ll have a guaranteed place at the 2013 London Marathon.

We ask that you pay a registration fee of £100 (refunded if you raise over £3000) and that you raise a minimum of £2500. As part of the Womankind team you’ll have access to all of the benefits above and we’ll support you with both your fundraising and running.

To apply for a charity place please fill in this application form.

We’ll then get in touch as soon as we can to let you know if you have secured a place.

2) Use your own place

If you have secured a place on the London Marathon 2013 through the public ballot then you can still raise money to change the lives of women and girls across the world. You’ll also receive all the support and benefits of being part of the Womankind Team.

Make a difference

Womankind’s Sue Turrell ran 5K in aid of Womankind on 3rd October

“I’d never run in my life before, but all the support I received and the knowledge of what the money I raised would pay for motivated me to do it.

“I raised £2388 which surpassed my expectations and is fantastic because that amount can pay for a counsellor at our shelter in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia to assist more than 120 survivors of violence.”

The money you raise by running the marathon with Womankind will be used to challenge the discrimination and violence which women across the world face on a daily basis.

£27 can pay for a Mobile Legal Advice Clinic (a lawyer and paralegals) to drive to a rural village in Zimbabwe for a day and give up to 30 women legal advice about escaping violence.
£575 can pay for 350 indigenous women in Bolivia to develop skills to become community leaders and challenge discrimination.
£2000 would pay for legal advice and support for 40 Afghan women who have experienced violence
