**The TCS London Marathon and official online fundraising partner Enthuse have today
launched Fundraising Week – aimed at providing participants preparing for the 2024
event with expert fundraising tips and guidance.**

During the week, top fundraisers from the 2023 edition of the TCS London Marathon
will share their tips and advice alongside resources including guides, and video
content. This will be hosted across the TCS London Marathon digital and social channels.
[Enthuse](https://enthuse.com/) has also provided content for charities to share
with fundraisers through its [charity hub](https://enthuse.com/fundraising-week-2024-tcs-london-marathon/).

This is the first time that fundraising has also been built into the training plans
for every participant of the TCS London Marathon. These plans are available to view
now on the TCS London Marathon’s online [training hub](https://www.tcslondonmarathon.com/training/training-plans).

ballot entrants, charity participants and those taking on the challenge virtually
as part of the TCS London Marathon #MyWay.
