FAQ
What if I have my own place in the Royal Parks Half Marathon?
Brilliant! You can still run for help2read as part of #TeamLiteracy and are welcome to fundraise for us via Virgin Money Giving! Fill out our Royal Parks Half Marathon form and let us know you’d like to run for #TeamLiteracy and that you’ve secured your own place.

Why do I have to commit to a minimum fundraising amount when I sign up for a charity place?
We invest in a limited number of charity places, reserved especially for #TeamLiteracy runners. To cover costs of the charity places as well as support our vital work in tackling illiteracy in South Africa, we require each runner to raise as much as possible for our cause. If you have any questions or concerns before you sign up, please don’t hesitate to email us at [email protected].
