The campaign for the Centre for Cancer Immunology is delighted to announce that this year it is extending its partnership with the ABP Southampton Marathon, and is now officially named as Lead Local Charity.
The event will take place on 23 April 2017 and this year includes a full marathon as well as the usual half marathon and 10k races around Southampton.
The partnership provides 100 charity places for runners at any race level, more opportunities to raise the profile of the campaign in the months leading up to the event and a larger presence at the race itself.
Last year, 30 staff and students ran in aid of the campaign, collectively raising a fantastic £9,500.
This year the campaign hopes to raise even more for the new Centre and is excited to be offering more runner places to staff, students, alumni and the local community.
Full details on how to apply for a place will be announced in January 2017.
