“I wouldn’t be where I am today without the incredible Greenhouse Sports team. I ran the marathon to make sure that more children are able to gain access to their knowledgeable, kind and caring mentors who go above and beyond the role of a coach.

I struggled running the marathon, but it was knowing the Greenhouse staff were there at the end that motivated me to finish.”

Ballot place and still want to fundraise?

If you’ve been successful in securing a place through the public ballot, you can still raise money for Greenhouse Sports! Get in touch and we can support you in raising vital funds for young Londoners. We won’t expect you to raise a minimum amount – just raise as much as you can.

We’re facing a cost-of-living crisis that is disproportionately falling on those who have less. The inequality our young people face has never been more stark – and the opportunity to make a difference has never been greater. Every mile you run and every penny you raise will help Greenhouse Sports transform the lives of young people growing up in disadvantaged communities through the power of sports coaching and mentoring. 

Our friendly team will be there to support you every step of the way.
