Marathon Kids UK is a children’s charity on a mission to reduce childhood obesity and improve the mental, physical and social well-being of young people and their families. Their schools and parks programme caters to children of all ages and abilities supporting them to run, walk, play or even skip their way to completing multiple marathons.

They track and reward the marathon kids for their individual achievements, inspiring them to live longer, happier and healthier lives. With our support they want to put a stop to childhood obesity and poor health in young people!

Marathon Kids is all about personal achievement over competition and inspires children of all fitness levels and abilities to set and reach their own goals in their own time without pressure. It encourages teamwork and embeds that skill at a young age.

Thanks to the Royal Arch Chapters of Warwickshire donating to the W.R.A. Benevolent Fund we were able to send £2,000.00 to buy T shirts for the children taking part and to give them encouragement.
