16 Apr 2014

We would like to congratulate, and say a massive thank you, to everyone who put on their running shoes and tackled the London Marathon on our behalf. You’re an inspiration to us all.

Taking on such a huge a challenge as this is a very big commitment so we are extremely grateful to all of our fundraisers for their support.

All 18 of our runners safely completed the 26.2mile route, with some fantastic times, which are listed below.

One of our Occupational Therapist, Rachel Harrison, (pictured right), finished in 4hrs 43 mins. Rachel's fundraising has now exceeded £4,500.

We’ll add updates to this page as we hear from the team members about their experiences so, if you would like to share your marathon story with us, we would love to hear from you. Please email a member of our events team

If you’re thinking of entering next year's marathon, please be aware that entries open on Tuesday 22nd April please set your alarms early? Be quick though – as places closed last year in a record time, just 11hours after opening!
