Event information

Somerset Wildlife Trust are gathering interest to see if we can find a big enough team of runners to justify purchasing bond places in the TCS London Marathon 2027 and beyond.

You could take on one of the world's most famous marathons. Imagine getting cheered on through 26.2 miles of crowd lined streets, past some of London’s most iconic landmarks – the energy and atmosphere to keep you going really make this marathon you’ll never forget.

To stand the best chance in getting to run for wildlife at the TCS London Marathon, we recommend applying for your own place in the public ballot AND registering your interest with us, so we can let you know if we are lucky enough to secure a TCS London Marathon place in future.

We will announce our charity place winner after the public ballot places are announced. So if you are unsuccessful in the public ballot, you still have a chance to run for wildlife using our charity place if your application is successful.

What you thought

It was my dream for almost ten years, with eight unsuccessful ballot applications behind me. As a mum to two young children, we love to enjoy many of the areas which Somerset Wildlife Trust manage and conserve, and I’m so happy to be a part of helping this continue.
