Sponsorship money raised will be going towards the L&D’s neonatal intensive care unit (NICU), one of only three such centres in the East of England equipped to offer the highest level of care to the sickest and most vulnerable newborns.
The hospital needs to raise £1.5million to complete its expansion, so that even more tiny lives can be saved.
Sarah Newby, fundraising manager at the L&D, said: “We are really excited about being so involved with On Your Marks Luton.

“We would love for runners to raise money for the hospital charity appeal through the race, or if they want to team up and raise money as a group we can help them do that too.
“Events like this often fill up really quickly so don’t miss out – sign up today!”
