Run for Ukraine

We invite the running community to Run for Ukraine together, raise funds together, wear blue and yellow together and help to make a difference to the Ukraine relief effort.

Hugh Brasher

Event Director of London Marathon Events

All participants who have already entered the Vitality London 10,000 are also invited to wear blue and yellow and, if they are not already supporting a charity, to raise funds for DEC.

Donations to the DEC’s appeal are being used to help both people inside Ukraine and refugees who have fled to neighbouring countries, providing food, shelter, medical care and trauma support for people forced to flee the conflict. More details can be found at dec.org.uk.
