I’m running the Málaga Marathon for Gold for Kids

Hazel Woodward is raising money for GOLD FOR KIDS

Malaga Marathon · 8 November 2026

Many Dental professionals are unaware of the huge potential that the combined value of removed restorations represents. We believe patients, professionals and the public are united in the belief that this money is best used for the greater good - to help the many children’s charities across the country in their vital work. That’s why we make it possible for value driven dental practice to make a big difference - collecting and turning restorations and old donated jewellery, into cash - which becomes income for children’s charities. Why Gold For Kids? As dentists ourselves, we know that there is value in the restorations and precious metals we recover from patients. Traditionally, due to the relatively low value of a single restoration, that value was retained. But what if that value could be multiplied and used to benefit some of the most vulnerable children in the UK? This is why Gold For Kids was created. Where does the money go? Gold For Kids currently partners with Barnardos and NSPCC, with a view to expand our support to other childrens’ charities as our partnerships grow. Currently resourced entirely by volunteers, our registered charity status means that in the future, the costs of operating the charity will be covered by the gift aid recovered on donations, so the value of your donation is what is transferred to the charity. How can you help? By showing your support through a cash donation, old jewellery or discarded dental restorations.

Story

I’m taking on the Málaga Marathon to raise money for Gold for Kids, a charity that supports children and families when they need it most.

Preparing for a marathon takes months of commitment, so I’ve set myself several challenges along the way. As part of my training, I’ll also be running:

The Warrington Half Marathon

The Manchester Half Marathon

The Málaga Marathon

Every training run and finish line will bring me closer to my goal, but knowing I’m raising money for such a worthwhile cause will keep me going when the miles get tough.

Any donation, no matter the amount, will make a difference. If you’re unable to donate, sharing this page would also mean so much to me.

Thank you for supporting me and Gold for Kids. I’ll be sharing updates throughout my training and on race days!
