Brighton Marathon
Brighton Marathon has announced its 2020 event will now be postponed until Friday 18 – Sunday 20 September.
We know how disappointing this will be for our runners who have trained so hard and would like to say a big thank you to everyone who has chosen to run for Battersea and raise vital funds for our dogs and cats. We’re incredibly grateful for your support. Battersea relies upon donations to raise the vital funds needed to keep our centres running, and now, more than ever, we need the continued support of the public to ensure we can continue to be here for every dog and cat.
On Sunday the 19th April 2020, one of Europe’s favourite 26.2 milers, the Brighton Marathon, is back with its roaring crowds and a fantastic atmosphere. The course takes you through the iconic city centre before finishing on the seafront, where runners can celebrate with friends and family in the Beach Village.
By taking part in the Brighton Marathon for Battersea, you'll be helping lost, abandoned and unwanted dogs and cats find the loving, new homes they need.
