London Marathon - 26 April 2009

Golden Bond Places

Can you pledge £3,000?

Due to an overwhelming response, all of our £3,000 golden bond places have now been filled.
 

Can you pledge £1,500?

For the remaining 25 Golden Bond places (available for allocation from October) there is always high demand. To make our application process as fair as possible, we ask that the following criteria is met:

• Firstly you should have applied directly to the London Marathon for a place through the ‘Public Ballot’, and have been unsuccessful. Although this is not essential, individuals that have firstly applied direct to the London Marathon, will be given priority.
• You must have/have had a direct link to someone with Motor Neurone Disease
• You must be able to pledge to raise a minimum of £1,500
• All successful applicants will be required to pay a ‘non-refundable’ registration fee of £20, once we have confirmed their place.

When Will I Know If I've Been Successful?

The London Marathon will let you know in October/November whether or not you have been successful in the ballot. Once you know the outcome, please contact the Fundraising Team on 01604 611860 or email us.

• If you have been successful, we will be delighted to send you one of our Marathon Fundraising Packs and register you as one of our team.
• If you are unsuccessful, please contact us for an application form for one of our Golden Bond Places. All applications must be returned promptly by 20 December 2008.

You will be notified during the first week in January whether we have been able to offer you a place.

What Support WIll I Get?

Whether you have your ‘own place’ in the race, or one of our Golden Bond places, you become part of our valued team and will receive the following support:

• A running vest/T-shirt
