The whole experience was brilliant. Being part of the Refuge team was a real privilege and I was made to feel welcomed and appreciated… Thank you so much for helping to make the day so memorable”

Use your place in the 2010 Virgin London Marathon to do something amazing – help Refuge to support women and children who have experienced the horror of domestic violence. One woman in four will experience domestic violence at some point in her lifetime, so although we may not know it, it’s likely that we all know someone who has been, or will be, affected. Refuge makes an immeasurable difference to the victims of domestic violence, providing high quality services including safe emergency accommodation, individual and group counselling, and community based outreach services.
All our runners receive:
- Refuge t-shirt or professional running vest
- Letter transfers so you can add your name to your top
- Post-race party complete with massage and showers
- Full marathon training plan
- Sponsorship pack and fundraising advice
- One-to-one support every step of the way
