Story

On Sunday 23rd April I will be running the London Marathon.This is by far the biggest physical & mental challenge I will face 😬. For this great event I will be raising money for MediCinema, a charity which improves the wellbeing and quality of life of NHS patients, and their families, through the power of the shared cinema experience and the magic of film. 

They build and run cinemas in hospitals equipped with space for beds, wheelchairs, and medical equipment. Their service act as intervention for social isolation, loneliness and anxiety which helps to increase patient resilience and build wider social support networks through the power of cinema.

Through the latest and best the film industry has to offer, MediCinema  engages and uplifts like no other. Utilising the power of cinema to enable patients, many of whom will be experiencing complex and long term hospital stays, to experience some sense of normality and reduce both the isolation and marginalisation they
may be feeling.

On behalf of MediCinema thank you for your contribution and support. Pete
