Arthritis effects 10 million people in the UK and as we work towards our ultimate vision – a future free from arthritis, with your support by running the 2025 Royal Parks Half Marathon we can continue to invest in world-class research, delivering high-quality services and campaigning on issues that matter the most to people with arthritis. Secure your charity place today by filling out the form on the Run for Charity website.

If you have any questions, we’re happy to help! Simply email [email protected] or call 0300 790 0405.

I have my own place

Congratulations on being successful in the public ballot! Will you use your place to help us work towards a future free from arthritis? You’ll get the same support as our charity place runners, but you won’t need to commit to a sponsorship target. If you would like to fundraise with your place, we would of course love to support you. If you want to join team Versus Arthritis with your own place simply register below. 

The support you'll get

• A Versus Arthritis running vest
• An official welcome pack full of helpful training and fundraising advice
• Dedicated training and fundraising support from our team before and after the race
• Cheer support on the route
• Access to our closed Facebook group where you can talk to our community of supporters and benefit from their years of experience
