Why run for our charity?

We are a small, family founded and run charity that supports people affected by cancer and cancer poverty.

Every penny of every pound you raise goes directly to help us give more families ‘Something To Look Forward To’

Our charity nearly trebles the value of your donations

So for every £100 you raise we will be able to give out £260 worth of gifts and experiences

How we will support you

  • Once you have secured a place with us, we will register you with the event for one of our charity places.
  • We will help you set up your personalised online fundraising page with ‘GivenGain’
  • Offer you support with your fundraising before, during and after the event.
  • Provide you with a charity running shirt & ‘recovery’ bag.
  • Provide refreshments at our marquee in the event village.
  • Join us all after the event at the Tivoli Pub for drinks, food and a chance to celebrate your achievement with other runners in our VIP area.

1. Obtaining places in the Cambridge Half Marathon requires an investment from our charity of more than double the cost of a normal ballot place. By applying for a charity place you agree to meet the minimum sponsorship amount of £300.

2. Gift Aid is in addition to the minimum sponsorship amount and is not counted towards the sponsorship target of £300.

3. The fundraising milestones include – setting up your fundraising page and receiving your first donation within a week of registration (don’t worry… we will help you with this), reaching at least £150 raised by 11th January, and during the final event month raising a total of at least £250.

4. All monies raised must be through GivenGain, our sponsorship partners. If a deficit to the minimum sponsorship amount of £300 remains after this time, STLFT may work with you to address the shortfall. STLFT may contact you and require you to pay the difference if no resolution is reached, and the minimum sponsorship has not been met

How to set up your fundraising page

Thank you for running for our charity to help us raise lots of money to give thousands of people ‘Something To Look Forward To’.

This year we have partnered with ‘Given Gain’ as our preferred sponsorship platform.

Following feedback from runners last year we have also made it simple for you to set up your own sponsorship page. It literally takes 3 minutes.

By setting it up yourself it means you have full/better access to your sponsorship page to make changes…. add photos… change fundraising targets as you smash them etc etc.

To set up your page please watch the video below (there is no audio) and that will show you how to set up your page using our fundraising page link (the button below the video).
