Join team Have a Heart and Rockinghorse for the Brighton Marathon 2014

A local children’s charity is appealing for runners to support them by taking part in the Brighton Marathon 2014.

Rockinghorse, the official fundraising arm of the Royal Alexandra Children’s Hospital (the Alex) and a vital supporter of the Trevor Mann Baby Unit (TMBU), has teamed up with Heart FM’s charity, Have a Heart, for the event which is now in its fifth year.

As sponsors of all their fundraising activity for both the Brighton Half Marathon and the Brighton Marathon 2014, the support from Have a Heart has allowed Rockinghorse the opportunity to recruit more runners than ever this year.

All runners from both charities are supporting sick children and babies in Sussex, and every penny of sponsorship will go directly to Rockinghorse who are fundraising for a very special project - a brand new, non-surgical unit for the children’s A&E department at the Alex.

All Have a Heart and Rockinghorse places for the Brighton Half Marathon are now sold out, so the Brighton Marathon is the last opportunity to run for the charity. Registration costs £49 per person and minimum sponsorship is £475.

For more information or to book your place for the Brighton Marathon 2014 on Sunday 6 April, please contact the marathon team at Have a Heart on 03333 217 000, or email haveaheart@heart.co.uk
