London Marathon -
25th April 2010
Small charities like NACC are unable to obtain places for
the London Marathon (we are 376th on their list of new charities
application and have been since 2003 so we are unlikely to get places
for the foreseeable future!) However, and to our great delight, during
the past 5 years over 200 people have pledged to run in the London
Marathon in support of NACC and well over 60% were successful in their
application, raising a fantastic £150,341.98! The ballot for 2010
will first open on 27th April – the day after the 2009 race. Click here to applyDon’t
miss your opportunity to apply and run for NACC during our 30th
Anniversary! We would love to have your support during our 30th
Anniversary Year. Why not apply with friends, colleagues and
family members to make it a memorable event? We can offer you a sponsor
form, running vest, your very own
webpage on JustGiving and literature to present to your sponsors.
