2027 TCS London Marathon (25 April 2027)
If you’ve been inspired by this year’s incredible London Marathon and fancy giving it a go yourself – we want to hear from you!
Among this year’s 59,000 runners were our ‘fab four’ – Gemma, Harry, Hen and Fabs – all part of #TeamCornwallMind and each running to raise much-needed funds to help people in Cornwall struggling with their mental health.
Between them, they’ve raised a whopping £15,000 (and counting!) for Cornwall Mind and we couldn’t be more grateful or more proud!💙
Want to do the same? Join our 2027 TCS London Marathon team by applying for one of our Cornwall Mind Silver Bond places.
Be part of something special – and make those 26.2 miles much more meaningful by running for Cornwall Mind!
