UPDATE:

In less than a week we raised £2,900 and we're so close to our initial target of £3,000. We thought it would take months and we've still got ages until the marathon so we've decided to up the target.

We are so greatful to everyone that has donated so far - thank you 🙏

Welcome to our fundraising page. We (Ryan and Jamie) will be running the London Marathon on 26 April 2026 to raise money and awareness for the Multiple Sclerosis (MS) Society.

Many of you will know our amazing mum, Debbie. She was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis about 15 years ago and can be seen whizzing up and down the High Street in her wheelchair.

Some days, her body feels heavy before the day has even started. Simple things like getting out of bed, concentrating and even resting can become exhausting. The hardest part is that most people can't see beyond the physical impacts. They don't understand how much it takes from her. We see her push through pain and fatigue. We see her smile when she's struggling. We see her putting on a brave face when she shouldn't have to.

Much like our mum, MS doesn’t switch off. Despite her illness, mum does so much to help others in our community. She’s been the mayor for Olney for a few years now, and in 2023 she was elected by the people of Olney to Milton Keynes City Council.

She works non-stop, pouring her heart and soul into the town.

We honestly couldn’t be prouder of all she has achieved since her diagnosis. MS has changed her life, but it hasn't taken her determination to help others.

For every £10 you donate, you can choose a song for our “Race Day Playlist.”

Please be nice.

Remember to type the name and artist of the song when donating.

The MS Society:

The MS Society is a vital resource for those affect by MS. They fund research, offer practical and emotional support via helplines, local groups, and online resources, and campaign for better treatment, care, and rights for everyone living with MS, aiming to stop MS for good.

The Run...

Neither of us are "runners" so actually completing the marathon is going to be a challenge. To make it a bit more fun and encourage people to donate, we will create a playlist of songs chosen by people that donate.

By donating, you're not just supporting a cause, you're supporting our mum, and millions of others fighting a battle every day.
