Story

2nd May update

They did it! Our runners were absolutely amazing on the day in some really tough, hot conditions. This did not stop them of course and every runner finished in good time, cheered on by the MPS cheer squad and family and friends. Well done #TeamMPS. More good news, their fundraising has gone absolutely crazy and the team are just a couple of donations away from £30,000! This is incredible and we are all extremely proud and grateful to all of our lovely runners and their supporters. THANK YOU!!

There's no stopping our team! They've smashed through their £18,000 target and are heading to £22,000! Thank you to everyone who is supporting them and spurring them on.

Our amazing team of runners are preparing to take on the ultimate challenge, the 2025 TCS London Marathon, which is taking place on 27th April 2025.

If you want to support our team, we'd love you to come along on the day and cheer them on. If you can't make it on the day, you can donate to an individual runner's page or spur on the whole team by donating via this page. You can also send good luck messages for them to the email address below.

The MPS Society provides vital support to families affected by one of 27 rare, life-limiting genetic conditions. We want all affected children and adults to have access to exceptional support and advice, world-class clinical care and effective treatments.

As a small charity, we rely on wonderful people like our team of runners to raise funds so we can transform the lives of those affected by these conditions.

The support from the MPS Society has been amazing: from always being there at the end of the phone to producing literature in non-medical language.

Events organised by the MPS Society have given us opportunities to connect with other families outside of the hospital environment, which has helped to build a network of support.
