This year I have the honour of running the London Marathon for St Richard’s Hospice, a cause very close to my heart. In 2018, St Richard’s provided my father with both outpatient and inpatient care, supporting not only him but our whole family with exceptional compassion and kindness. Their care is available 24 hours a day and continues through bereavement, offering comfort when it is needed most.

St Richard’s Hospice is funded entirely by donations, and every contribution helps them continue this vital work. This will be the first marathon I have ever run, and as I turn 60 this year it feels like a meaningful challenge to take on. I have previously run several half marathons, but this one is truly special. Thank you so much for your support.
