This year’s partnership will see JustGiving promoted at events including:

Manchester events

In addition Xtra Mile Events organises the ASICS Greater Manchester Marathon, which takes place on Sunday 2nd April 2017.
They describe it as “the UK’s flattest, fastest and friendliest marathon”.
Alzheimer’s Society, Cancer Research UK and Save the Children are the Official National Charity Partners for 2017, whilst the Christie charity and Royal Manchester Children’s Hospital are the Official Local Charity Partners.
They also organise the Manchester Half Marathon, which was held for the first time in 2016. Xtra Mile Events expects runners at these two events in particular to generate substantial funds using JustGiving.
Race Director Simon Hill explained:

“All of our events at Xtra Mile Events represent considerable sporting achievement and this makes them an ideal platform for charity fundraising. We are thrilled to be working with JustGiving across every event to enable competitors to easily raise money for their chosen charity and enhance their experience.”
