Help our charity by supporting us in the TCS London Marathon 2025

Despite our best efforts, for a third consecutive year, our charity was not successful in obtaining official places in the London Marathon this year. However, we remain determined to make a positive impact and are reaching out to runners who have secured charity places to support our cause.

Tree of Hope’s Mission

Tree of Hope is a UK charity dedicated to ensuring every child and young person has equal access to essential healthcare, enabling them to lead fulfilling lives and reach their full potential.

“Tree of Hope have been so supportive in my fundraising efforts for my twin sons who have cerebral palsy. They are always on hand to help with PR, Marketing and to discuss ideas with. Working with them opened up more opportunities in working with companies to ask for donations and support. They also secured the boys a grant which absolutely blew me away! I cannot recommend them enough to help you with your fundraising journey.”

Tree of Hope’s CEO Becky Andrew comments, saying:

“Tree of Hope has supported thousands of families throughout its history, yet countless others still need our help, particularly in today’s climate where the healthcare funding gap continues to widen.
