To secure my charity place in the Dublin Marathon 2026, I agree to lodge a non-refundable deposit fee of €150 to my online fundraising page. This fundraising page will be automatically created for me by Eventmaster, once my place has been confirmed by Concern Worldwide on the Realbuzz platform.

I understand that my charity place remains the property of Concern Worldwide until I have met the agreed fundraising target in full.

I will raise at least 33% (€400) (which includes my deposit by 20th July 2026), 80% of my minimum sponsorship by race day (25th October 2026), and I will raise 100% of my minimum sponsorship by the sponsorship deadline date (23rd November 2026).

Concern Worldwide will only contact me for matters directly related to my participation in the event.

I will keep Concern informed of any changes to my contact details by calling (01) 417 7700 or emailing info.challenge@concern.net.

If Concern Worldwide is unable to reach me after multiple reasonable attempts, and no response is received for a significant period of time, I understand this may result in Concern reallocating or withdrawing my charity place.
