Frequently asked questions

What is Fundraising Week?

Fundraising Week is an annual initiative organised by London Marathon Events and Enthuse, the official fundraising partner for all their events. The aim of Fundraising Week is to give you the tools to help your charity maximise the 2024 TCS London Marathon fundraising opportunity. It will also let you shine a spotlight on your fundraising campaigns and celebrate your fundraisers and volunteers – ultimately raising awareness for your cause.

What activity do London Marathon Events and Enthuse have planned during Fundraising Week?

London Marathon Events will be sending two email communications to fundraisers – a regular participant newsletter mentioning Fundraising Week and solus emails to fundraisers and charities dedicated exclusively to Fundraising Week. There is also a media release and social media activity planned for the week, both from Enthuse and London Marathon Events.

Do charities have to register with Enthuse if they haven’t partnered with them before?

Charities that haven’t partnered with us before need to complete the onboarding process in order to receive funds raised for their causes, as well as benefit from branded fundraising pages and real-time data. There is no subscription charge for the platform for charities that hold places in LME events. The Enthuse registration process is very simple and can be completed by filling out the form below. The Enthuse team is always happy to help with onboarding.

Is there a subscription fee for using Enthuse for marathon fundraising?

No, there is no subscription fee.

For each £10 raised by our supporters, how much will our charity receive?

Enthuse charges 1.9 per cent plus 20p per transaction to cover the cost of the card fee. There is a small additional fee for processing Gift Aid on behalf of the charity. This is five per cent of the Gift Aid value only.

How can I customise my 2024 TCS London Marathon charity page?

You can find a helpful guide here.
