Are you looking to take part in the London Marathon 2027? Our Trust charity has places! 🏃

Whether is your first marathon, or you enjoy the adrenaline rush of taking part, anyone can apply to join Team Brighterway!

Brighterway's purpose is simple: to make life brighter for the people who use local NHS community and mental health services - and for the incredible staff who care for them. Every penny we fundraise goes towards things the NHS alone can’t provide. These 'extras' aren’t luxuries - they’re the things that help people feel calmer, recover well, stay connected, and live more independently.

💪 Don't delay! You must apply by Friday 31 July - https://hiowhealthcare.nhs.uk/about-us/charity/london-marathon-application-2027-application-form
