Edinburgh Children's Hospital Charity believes no child should face hospital alone. Every day, 500 seriously ill children face a life-changing hospital visit. Children tell us it can be frightening. Parents say they're sick with worry. We want to change this. With your support, we can. Are you in?

Story

Welcome to my JustGiving fundraising page! I am running the 2026 Edinburgh Half Marathon for Edinburgh Children's Hospital Charity in order to raise as much money as possible.They are a fantastic Charity and I would be so grateful if you could take the time to sponsor me to help the cause and to motivate me in my training!

My reason for choosing Edinburgh Children's Hospital Charity is Hugh Rennie. Hugh had a very difficult 2024-2025 after being diagnosed with a brain tumour requiring major surgery and multiple treatments. As a result, he spent a huge amount of time at the Edinburgh Royal Hospital for Children & Young People. He and his family received amazing support from the charity during this time. I’m sure you will agree this was a major challenge for a 5 year old and his family. Hugh was a complete trooper with all his treatment and came through his ordeals in May 2025.

It may have taken me a little time to commit to doing something (I’m not a runner!) but please help me raise as much money as possible for the charity and for our great friends the Rennie family and especially Hugh. Thank you so much for any support.
