Own place entry
If you’ve already got a place in the 2026 Ealing Half, you can still fundraise for Shooting Star Children’s Hospices. There’s no fundraising target, just raise as much as you can! Just email us or start fundraising today to join the team.
Why join #TeamShootingStar?
When you join #TeamShootingStar, you will receive:
- A free Shooting Star charity running vest
- Dedicated support from Shooting Star’s Challenge Events Team
- Regular #TeamShootingStar email updates to inspire your fundraising
- Access to our charity marquee in the Race Village
But most importantly, you’ll run knowing you’re supporting families with a baby, child or young person with a life-limiting condition, or who have been bereaved, across west London and Surrey. You’ll run knowing you’re support families in Ealing.
It costs £12 million a year to run Shooting Star Children’s Hospices. Without the generosity of our event participants we would not be able to keep our services going. Just £280 could fund one whole month’s worth of arts & crafts supplies at our hospices so that children with a life-limiting condition have a creative outlet to express themselves.

“The Shooting Star Children’s Hospices team has provided encouragement and positive energy when it has been needed the most. I feel very honoured to have run for #TeamShootingStar!”
