London Marathon: Join the Rain Forest Foundation Team!

WE STILL HAVE A FEW PLACES LEFT FOR THE FLORA LONDON MARATHON 2009!
Making footprints that won't do any damage to the planet!


For those worried about global warming, getting hot and sweaty might not seem an obvious way to cool things down, but it is! Destruction of the rainforest causes more CO2 emissions than all of the world's planes, trains and cars, so take up the challenge and make a difference...pop on your running shoes and help to reduce the Earth's carbon emission by making some footprints that won't do any damage!

On the 26th April you could be part of a team of 11 Rainforest Foundation UK runners who are running to help fund our work in more than 20 countries across three continents providing financial support for practical projects run by local organisations and indigenous peoples' associations.

Every project is different, but they all share the aim of securing forest peoples' rights and livelihoods, and protecting and sustainably managing tropical rainforests.

If you are selected to join our team you will be provided with a RFUK running vest, fundraising and training advice and we will help you set up your own web page to collect online sponsorship.

We have a limited number of Charity Gold Bond places for the marathon which are highly sought after. To request a place in the 2009 run, please call 020 7485 0193.

I hope you'll decide to join the RFUK Marathon Team – we really value your support.
