Story

"We're involved in a fight without a happy ending but the amazing people at Shooting Star Chase have helped us cope and thrive as a family."

Shooting Star Chase is a leading childrens hospice charity caring for babies, children and young people with life-limiting conditions, and their families.

Whether lives are measured in days, weeks, months or years, we are here to make every moment count. We support families from diagnosis to end of life and throughout bereavement with a range of nursing, practical, emotional and medical care.

The London Marathon is one of our biggest annual fundraising events and helps to maintain our vital care services. By joining #TeamSSC you will help us to offer invaluable support to families who are living in the most unimaginable circumstances.

Whether you have one of our charity's Gold Bond places or your own ballot place, we will support you every step of the way with your training and fundraising.

"I just wanted to say a massive thank you to both of you for your support leading up to and on the day of the London Marathon. It was one of the best experiences of my life and I'd do it all again without hesitation."

You can donate to our team through this page, but if you know one of our #TeamSSC runners, please visit their individual JustGiving page to make your pledge and help them reach their target!
