Run the London Marathon for #TeamCardiff

London Marathon

Join #TeamCardiff and run for Cardiff University research at the TCS London Marathon 2027 on 24/25 April.

As part of #TeamCardiff you can choose to support either Cardiff University’s neuroscience and mental health, or cancer research. By supporting the next generation of researchers, you can help accelerate life-changing discoveries to improve prevention, diagnosis, and treatment for people living with a wide range of conditions.

Apply for our 2027 #TeamCardiff charity place

We’re thrilled to offer one exclusive #TeamCardiff charity place for the 2027 TCS London Marathon – and we’re inviting committed individuals to apply.

Because only one spot is available, we’ll allocate it based on the information you provide in your application.

The charity place requires a non-refundable £75 registration fee (payable only if you are offered the place) and a fundraising pledge of £2,500 (excluding Gift Aid) in support of either Cardiff University’s neuroscience and mental health or cancer research.

Applications are open until Tuesday 30 June 2026. Once applications close, we’ll review all submissions and contact you to confirm whether you’ve been successful.

Please read our TCS London Marathon 2027 charity place terms & conditions.
