Story

🏃‍♂️ I'm running 50km to support New Forest for Ukraine 🇺🇦

On 27th September, I’ll be taking on a huge personal challenge — running a 50km ultra marathon — to raise funds for New Forest for Ukraine, a charity that does vital work to support those affected by the war in Ukraine.

In 2023, I delivered vital aid to a frontline city in Ukraine. During my time there, I gained firsthand experience of the devastating realities of the war. While in Kyiv, I witnessed multiple missile and drone strikes, a stark reminder of the constant danger faced by civilians and responders alike. The resilience of the Ukrainian people left a deep impression on me, and the experience reinforced the urgent need for continued support and international solidarity.

New Forest for Ukraine provides essential aid — from medical supplies and food parcels to housing support for refugees — and they're making a real difference on the ground. The war might not always dominate the headlines anymore, but the need for support is as urgent as ever.

If you can, please consider sponsoring me. Whether it’s £2 or £20, every penny goes straight to the charity’s frontline efforts, and it all helps.

Thank you so much for your support — and wish me luck on race day.
