If this weekend’s London Marathon left you feeling inspired — whether it was the roar of the crowds, the emotional stories behind the runners, or the incredible atmosphere that only London can create, you’re not alone. Every year, thousands watch the race and think, maybe next time, that could be me. For 2027, that possibility is closer than you might think.
Sight Support Hull & East Yorkshire is offering one guaranteed charity place for the 2027 London Marathon, giving you the chance to take on one of the world’s most iconic races while making a real difference to people living with sight loss in our region. No ballot stress. No waiting. Just a clear path to the start line and a powerful reason to run.
By choosing to support Sight Support HEY, you’ll be helping fund vital services that provide independence, confidence, and connection for people adjusting to life with visual impairment. Every mile you run, every pound you raise, helps someone navigate challenges most of us rarely think about.
Whether you’re a seasoned runner or someone who’s only just caught the marathon bug after watching this year’s event, 2027 could be your moment.
If the marathon spirit moved you this weekend, don’t let the feeling fade. Apply for a guaranteed place, run for a cause that matters, and help change lives across Hull and East Yorkshire.
