Sponsorship in 2026

We have three major challenge events coming up over the next few months, with participants already seeking sponsorship. First up will be the London Landmarks Half Marathon on Sunday 12th April, followed two weeks later by the 2026 TCS London Marathon on Sunday 26th April. This year we also have a new fundraising venture for Cherry Lodge – the Big Barnet Walk – a circular, roughly 5km walk, starting and finishing at the Orange Tree Pub, Totteridge Green, to take place during the morning of Bank Holiday Monday, 25th May.

Sponsorship in 2025

On 31st July, Meena Parihar presented Cherry Lodge with a big cheque for £3,500 raised by undertaking Skydive. Cherry Lodge swimmers returned to the pool at QE Boys’ school for a Sponsored Swim on Sunday 6th July. During two weeks in May, Cherry Lodge member Jane Say walked the 177-mile-long Camino Way from Porto to Santiago de Compostela to raise money for us. Jane’s fundraising total for this great achievement stands at just over £3,800. On 27th April, CL had six runners in the 2025 tcs London Marathon – Claire Dutton, Trey Warner Noel, Liam Pratt, Joe Fryer, Nicholas Shone and Leoni Gomes de Oliveira Junior – raising £10,700 via Enthuse. The 2025 Cherry Lodge Easter Walk ‘n’ Talk event in Oakhill Park, held on Sunday 13th April, was very much enjoyed and raised over £2,000
