Join our team for the British 10K London Run 2011 and help change the future for people with epilepsy.
This fantastic 10K run right goes right
through the heart of London, and you can
be a part of it. We have guaranteed charity
places available; all we ask is that you
raise £125 in minimum sponsorship
from your entry, and there is a small £10
entry fee.
You can download an entry form here,
or contact us
for the form today!
At this point it is possible to enter the
race direct here
and choose to run in support of us. Let
Jo
in the office know once you have signed
up and you will receive full fundraising
support! There is no sponsorship target
for own place runners.

By running for Epilepsy Research UK, you
will be helping to fund ground-breaking
research in the UK that will help change
the future for people with epilepsy. Every
project we fund is rigorously assessed by
a panel of experts, to ensure it has the
potential to advance our understanding of
the condition and improvements in the treatment
of those with epilepsy.
There is no known cure for epilepsy
Over 30% of people with epilepsy have
seizures that do not respond to drug treatment
In over 60% of cases there is no known
cause
Every year 1,000 people die as a result
of epilepsy
You can help!
Every pound raised by you will increase
the amount of research we can fund.
We are here to support you every step of the way, and each runner will receive a fundraising pack full of ideas, sponsor forms and a personalised Epilepsy Research UK running vest for the race day. We also have fundraising materials available for all your needs, such as drinks mats, banner tape, balloons, pens, ribbon badges - you'll get a form to order what you need in your fundraising pack!
