Messages of hope

Small actions can have a big impact on somebody’s day, whether it’s a smile at a stranger, a message to say ‘I’m here for you’ or some kind and encouraging words.

That’s why, along with cheering on our marathon runners, we’re encouraging you to cheer on the people around you with messages of hope and support.

From ‘You’ve got this, keep going’ to ‘It’s OK to not be OK’, we want you to flood your friends, family and social media with messages of support.

Read on to see messages from others, or share your own message of hope today.

From "You're never alone" to "Just be you", here are some of the messages of hope and support that you've shared with us.

You can send us your own message of hope to share on this page by clicking on the button above.

As well as sharing your messages online, we also have posters that you can download and use to cheer on our marathon runners.

Choose a poster with a message that resonates with you, or a print out an empty poster where you can write your own message of hope.
