Ballot Place – Congratulations to everyone who has been successful in the London Landmarks Half Marathon ballot! If you want to make your place count, sign up to run for us as an own place runner. There is no fundraising target but you will receive all of the incredible benefits of being a part of Team Young Lives.
We love our runners, and we want them to have an awesome experience at the London Landmarks Half Marathon! Some of the benefits of joining our team are:
When a child is diagnosed with cancer life becomes full of fear, for them and their family. Fear of treatment, but also of families being torn apart, overwhelming money worries, of having nowhere to turn, no one to talk to.
At Young Lives vs Cancer, we help families find the strength to face whatever cancer throws at them. We provide grants and free accommodation close to hospital to help with spiralling costs. Our care teams are on hand to help families with everything from getting benefits to treatment closer to home. And we lobby the government to make sure they get the support they’re entitled to. Powered by the kindness of our supporters, we’ll face it all together.
Join us at the London Landmarks Half Marathon 2026 and use your miles to make a difference to young cancer patients.
If you have any questions, or simply want to know more about running for Young Lives vs Cancer, please get in touch!
