The London Marathon 2027 takes place on Sunday 25 April 2027. We have four charity places you can apply for. Take on the challenge of a lifetime and run for Dorothy House in one of the world’s most iconic running events.

Running the TCS London Marathon is an incredible achievement and a challenge you’ll remember for the rest of your life. Whether you’re running in memory of a loved one, thanking Dorothy House for the care you or your family have received, supporting your local hospice, or fulfilling a lifelong ambition, every mile you take and every pound you raise will help ensure that we can continue providing compassionate care and support to those who need us most.
