We are delighted to share that runners at the London Marathon raised a grand total of £76,967, not inclusive of gift aid!

SeeAbility had 33 runners fundraising for SeeAbility at the Marathon, including teams from our corporate partners Johnson & Johnson, Revantage and Primary Eyecare Services.

“Today was tough” said Virginia, one of our runners. “But it was amazing doing it for this amazing charity.”

Despite the heatwave, all our runners crossed the finish line and picked up their medals.

Another runner, Shabana said: “I still can’t comprehend what happened yesterday. It was just an incredible day. Thank you SeeAbility.”

Sarah, Public Fundraising Manager at SeeAbility, said:  

“This is one of the biggest fundraising totals I have ever experienced and I have just been in complete awe of this incredible team. They have been so focused and yesterday was a tough day for them with the heat. But every single one of them finished. It was an emotional day, particularly at the finish - I am so proud of them all.”

We are incredibly grateful to everyone for their hard work in training and fundraising for SeeAbility. All funds will go towards supporting people with learning disabilities, autism and sight loss to live, love, thrive and belong.
