Southampton Marathon

When you join Team St Barnabas we’ll be with you every step of the way, and will offer you all the support you need.

On the run-up to your marathon:

• Facebook Group: Sharing is caring. Join our St Barnabas House Run Group to chat and share stories, tips, and ideas.
• Strava Club: A Team St Barnabas Running Club, where you can join events and training runs. Maybe find a running buddy too!
• There may be a marathon task ahead, but we’re here with you every step of the way! If you have a question about running and fundraising for Team St Barnabas, get in touch today.

We’ve put together lots of helpful hints and tips about how to train for a marathon on our Running Hub, including how to stay motivated! We update our information regularly, and cover everything from running kit tips to nutritional advice.

JustGiving pages are the easiest way to start fundraising, as you can set them up quickly, share them across social media immediately (even connect it to Strava), and all money come directly to us. JustGiving also takes care of all Gift Aid!

• Get started by reading our guide to setting up your JustGiving page.
• Then sign up to JustGiving 

Or, if you prefer things old school – then we have a handy sponsorship form you can download to collect your fundraising.

If you’ve signed up as an own place runner and are thinking about donating your fundraising to us, please get in touch.

Many participants in past years choose to run the Marathon in memory of a loved one who was cared for by the hospice. Dedicating your time and energy into a personal challenge is an amazing way to honour someone who you’ve lost. By fundraising for us you’re also saying the best ‘thank you’ to the nurses and care professionals who helped care for your loved one.

Fundraiser Paul has taken on charity runs in memory of his father, Dennis:

“The care my dad received at St Barnabas House was incredible, it was first class. Nothing was ever too much trouble, I will be forever indebted to St Barnabas House, and that’s why I have fundraised for them the last few years.”
