Why run for FARA

We’re excited to offer places for the 2026 TCS London Marathon.

Are you ready to run one of the world’s most iconic races?

By joining Team FARA, you’ll be helping disadvantaged and disabled children from Romania’s poorest communities. Every step you take helps provide vital therapy, education and hope to disabled and disadvantaged youth. FARA is a charity dedicated to helping Romania’s most vulnerable communities find a brighter future.

Running the 2026 London Marathon is a remarkable personal achievement, but running it for FARA means you’ll also be transforming lives. FARA is one of the largest and most experienced NGO care providers in Romania, supporting children and families facing extreme poverty, discrimination, and marginalisation.  Our work brings lasting change to those who need it the most.

What’s involved?

To secure your place, we ask our runners to:

  • Pledge to raise a minimum of £2,000

  • Pay a £100 deposit as confirmation of your place

Every step you take, and every pound you raise, will help us continue our life-changing work across Romania.

Apply now for your chance to join Team FARA.

We will enter all completed applications received by August 27th into our ballot. The ballot will then be drawn, and we will let you know if you have been successful by the end of that week.
