As in the past three years our choir joined forces with Everyone Can Sing
to raise money for the charities we are supporting this singing year.
The routes taken by the different activities are shown at the end of this page.
Sponsors can donate to one of the charities or to both separately through the websites below. UK taxpayers can opt to gift-aid their donations via these direct giving sites.
From April 1st 2026 all donations to the two charities via these portals will be counted as Marathon sponsorship. Both giving sites alow messages to be connected to the donation, so please mention the participant you are sponsoring/supporting. Please also note that you will be charged a fee for using these sites, but you can reduce or even forgo this towards the end of the process.
If sponsors wish to pay cash, use bank transfer or make card payments these will be collected by the WBSS treasurer and split between the two charities after the event has concluded. Details of how to pay via WBSS can be found below.
Bank transfers can be made to the WBSS bank account with the reference: Marathon'26.
Account: West Bridgford Social Singers (some banks prefer WB Social Singers or just Social Singers)
Sort Code: 40-35-19 Account Number: 01563394
