Make a Real Difference - Run for the Martlets

Running the Brighton Marathon for Martlets Hospice

Whether you’re a beginner looking for inspiration to start training, or a seasoned runner looking for your next challenge, running for the Martlets is a rewarding experience. 

The Martlets team will support you all the way.

We can help with expert fundraising hints and tips, training advice and help in setting up fundraising pages on Just Giving. We will also provide a free Martlets running vest or t-shirt, ‘meeters and greeters’ at the finish, plus our dedicated ‘cheerers’ will be out on the course.

Each year we have a limited number of charity places with local & regional marathons and 10k runs, which are available on a first come, first serve basis.

"Having been connected with the Martlets (from even before it was built!), it was great to have their support and encouragement in running all three Brighton Marathons – raising sponsorship for such a good local cause added greatly to my sense of achievement."
