London Football Marathon 2025 · 14 June 2025 · Start fundraising for this event

The Football Marathon is the ultimate test of skill and endurance! Now in its 23rd year, the event has raised over £2.4 million to support Tackle's work.

Story

We are putting our love of football to the ultimate test this summer by entering Tackle Africa London Football Marathon - a unique fundraising event where we will play in a football tournament for 12-hours running roughly 40 km each.

Tackle Africa is a great charity which uses the power and popularity of football to deliver HIV and Sexual and Reproductive Health and Rights (SRHR) information and services to young people on football pitches across Sub-Saharan Africa.

The money raised will help train African football coaches, games teachers and community leaders to use fun, interactive football sessions with inbuilt health messaging with their players. Alongside receiving sexual health information during football sessions, it will also give players the chance to access sexual health services at sessions and football tournaments, such as HIV testing, condoms and other contraception, and referrals to further clinical services.
