Brathay is a registered charity that delivers personal development programmes with children and young people from across the UK. They work in partnership with various national and regional youth agencies in helping children and young people overcome difficulties arising from their personal and social circumstances, and give them the skills to make positive choices about their behaviour and attitude.

Alongside their work with children and young people Brathay also helps individuals and organisations excel by delivering high quality people development programmes. They have a strong commitment to CSR and work with people's beliefs and values, resulting in long-lasting and effective change. Programmes include team-building, graduate programmes, management & leadership development and coach & facilitator programmes.

Brathay currently work with over 5000 children and young people, and over 4000 adults each year.

As Brathay Hall Trust celebrated its 60th anniversary in 2006 the revival of the Windermere Marathon and the “10 Marathons in 10 Days Challenge” were being held to celebrate this milestone. These distinctive running events are also being seen as fund raising opportunities to extend Brathay’s charitable work to even more children and young people.

If you would like to make a donation in recognition of the challenge and in support of Brathay's work this would be most gratefully received via our Justgiving Donations Page or by post to 10 Marathons in 10 Days Challenge, Brathay Hall Trust, Ambleside, LA22 0HP. Thank You.
