Runner’s Declaration

By signing the declaration below, I confirm that I will be 18 years or over on the day of the 2019 London Marathon and that I am pledging to raise a minimum amount of £1,500 for the International Fund for Animal Welfare. I agree to make up the shortfall myself to the required minimum of £1,500 should I not reach my fundraising target. I consent to IFAW sharing my name and email address with the London Marathon to comply with their registration process.

All sponsor money raised represents a vital contribution to IFAW's entire mission of saving the world's animals from cruelty and exploitation and will be used where most needed to help ease their suffering.
