Every pound you raise by running for Ella’s will help unlock freedom among women who have survived trafficking and exploitation. Not only that, we will do everything we can to support and encourage you during your training and on race day.

Becky and Jamie, two of our incredible 2021 runners who raised more than £2,500 to support survivors.

We had a brilliant team of runners last year: Becky and Jamie (pictured), Simba and Dan.

‘Ella’s were amazing at staying in touch during the training. They kept us [runners] connected and motivated,’ says Dan.

Becky and Jamie (pictured) chose to run their virtual London Marathon route together, with friends, family, dogs and Ella’s staff ready at the finish line.

‘The finish line was so great. Having the party at the end was lovely!’ says Becky.

The TCS London Marathon: We have six places in the world-famous TCS London Marathon. Our places are in the virtual race, meaning you won’t run the official route but will run your own 26.2 mile route in London or anywhere you choose. We’ll be there to support you with your prep and fundraising, and to cheer for you on the day.

The Hackney Half: This iconic half-marathon on Sunday 22 May will take you 13.1 miles around London’s East End. This is a feel-good race with an amazing atmosphere. We only have one place remaining for this run, so get in touch asap if you’re interested.

If you believe in our work with women and want to help make it possible, this is a great opportunity to get involved. And we promise, we’ll make it fun.
