About the event
The London Landmarks Half Marathon is the only half marathon to go through both the City of London and City of Westminster. From cultural landmarks and heritage to the city's quirky and hidden secrets, runners get to explore the capital on a route like no other!
This event is a great option for both seasoned runners and those who want to start participating in running events, whilst raising funds to support our work changing the life stories of children living in the most disadvantaged areas of the UK.
The impact you'll have
£50 could help to train a volunteer to give parents with low literacy levels the confidence and skills to help develop their child’s literacy and communication skills.
£100 or more could contribute towards our work in communities facing the biggest literacy and poverty challenges in the UK, helping to create long-term change for children and families.
£280 could inspire a class of children to read for pleasure through a 10-week motivational programme working with the Premier League.

All runners will receive:
- A free National Literacy Trust running vest.
- Fundraising support from our dedicated events team.
- Support with half marathon training.
