The TCS London Marathon is for many, the ultimate bucket list item! It is one of the most popular running events in the world and places are highly sought after.
The route has remained largely unchanged since the inaugural race in 1981 and encompasses many of the capital’s most mesmerising landmarks, old and new. More than 55,000 runners are expected to take part in the 26.2 mile route with tens of thousands of spectators lining the streets to cheer them on. Could you be one of them?
“I’d highly recommend signing up to the London Marathon if you’ve ever debated it - the sense of achievement you will feel on the day not only through the run itself but also being able to give back to such an amazing charity like Francis House is a feeling I struggle to describe.”

We are delighted to have secured nine places for the TCS London Marathon 2026 which we can allocate to dedicated supporters who feel they can commit to raising a minimum of £1,500 in sponsorship for Francis House (not including Gift Aid).
We will also ask successful applicants to pay a registration fee of £100.
Whether you’re a seasoned marathon runner or it’s your first ever marathon, make 2026 even more memorable and run London in support of the children and families of Francis House.
Register your interest now for one of our limited charity places and we will be in touch when applications go live!
