Mark and Milly are running the marathon. That will be a combined total of over 52 miles - almost exactly the same distance as the roads within The Royal Parks.

We are raising funds for The Royal Parks Foundation, the independent charity that supports The Royal Parks. Your donation will help to ensure that future generations can enjoy these wonderful open spaces. The Foundation funds projects ranging from supporting the wildlife and trees to maintaining the only heavy horses still working in the capital.

Think of the enjoyment that the parks bring to over 30 million visitors each year, and be generous. Alternatively, think of the pain that Milly and Mark will go through and be sympathetic. Or, for the less generous - enjoy.

Best wishes and thanks,
