What we do

London Marathon Events is both a world-leading and hugely successful events management company and a social purpose organisation.  

Together with our parent charity, the London Marathon Foundation, we work to inspire activity in all ages, abilities and demographics. 

We create and deliver an extensive portfolio of running, cycling and swimming events which includes the TCS London Marathon and Ford RideLondon in addition to initiatives and outreach programmes which inspire activity and transform the lives of individuals in schools and communities across the UK. 

London Marathon Events passes its surplus every year through corporate gift aid to its parent charity, the London Marathon Foundation.
