Tommy's running events

Thanks for your interest in running for Tommy's. Your support will bring us closer to our goal of halving the number of tiny lives lost during pregnancy and birth.

And a special thank you to all our lovely London marathon runners, who braved the 26 mile trek around our capital city in aid of Tommy's. We are immensely honoured that you chose to support us, and can't thank you enough! For pictures from the day, visit our London Marathon 2010 page.

There are two ways to run for Tommys

Through a guaranteed place. This is a place in a popular race such as the London marathon that has already been secured by Tommy's. We will require you to raise a minimum sponsorship amount to cover our costs for this.	By entering a race yourself and then simply registering with us to let us know. Once we know, we can send you your free running vest, help you set up your fundraising page online and give you all the balloons, posters and t-shirts you need.

How we support our runners

Whether you run with your own place, or a Tommy's guaranteed place, you'll get first class care!

• Fundraising support, materials, ideas and tips
• Your own personalised fundraising web page
• A top quality breathable running vest
• An online community so you can chat to other Tommy's runners
• E-newsletters
• PR support to raise awareness of your fundraising efforts.

Fundraising - all you need to know

Your friends and family will probably sponsor you once you've set up your fundraising page, but to raise the maximum amount of money for our life-saving work, you could also think about organising a pub quiz, having a raffle or asking a local school to run a non-uniform day...
