If you are a Community Group volunteering on the day, you are our inspiration, thank you! We encourage you to apply to the New Forest Marathon Community Fund so we can say thank you by giving back to your organisation and inspiring/supporting new projects within the New Forest and surrounding area. By helping out you are not only benefiting yourself, but also helping the many other fantastic organisations and good causes which shape our community in the forest. The Marathon has a long history of supporting groups like yours and we want to see this grow from strength to strength.

Weather you are a member of our Race Crew, or a local group; volunteering at the New Forest Marathon is a great thing to do. It is so inspiring seeing so many people achieve personal goals in such stunning surroundings. By helping us to run this special and unique event, you will allow many fantastic groups, organisations and local good causes to benefit via our New Forest Marathon Community Fund. To find out more about the fund please visit our fundraising page.

On the day please bring plenty of big smiles and buckets of enthusiasm for everyone taking part, from the juniors running 200m to those completing the 26.2 miles through the forest everyone needs encouragement.

We look forward to hearing from you and making this special event memorable for everyone.
