The World Cancer Research Fund (WCRF) is appealing to those who have their own place or would like to take up a charity place to consider fundraising for us.

WCRF is the principal United Kingdom charity dedicated to research in the prevention of cancer and the promotion of a healthy diet, nutrition, physical activity and weight management.

So not only will taking part help you get into the kind of habits that can reduce your own cancer risk but the money raised will help us continue to fund our research and education programmes on cancer prevention.

Whether you are lucky enough to have had a successful ballot application, or would like one of our guaranteed golden bond places, we offer every runner the same outstanding level of support: training and nutritional advice; a welcome pack; a WCRF running vest; a personal online sponsorship page; a January reception with experts offering training and fundraising tips; regular team training runs; a post-race reception with free massage and shower.

Please apply by November 2nd by visiting www.wcrf-uk.org/fundraising, calling 0207 343 4222 or emailing [email protected]
