London Marathon 2019 · 28 April 2019 ·

We are Great Ormond Street Hospital Charity. We stop at nothing to help give seriously ill children childhoods that are fuller, funner and longer. Because we believe no childhood should be lost to illness.

Story

Well, here we go again. Back in 2017 I ran my first marathon, never imagining what an incredible experience it would be - not just the training, which I absolutely loved, but also the fundraising. 

I loved it so much, that a couple of days after London, I signed up for New York a few months later. Since then I have taken a bit of a break, but will be running London again in 2019, this time raising funds for Great Ormond Street.

I'm sure most of you will have heard of GOSH, but if you haven't I have included a link to their website below and, more importantly, what the funds that you are contributing will go towards.

I would be extremely grateful for anything you can give. Thanks so much in advance :)

  • £568 could fund a member of the GOSH play team for a whole week, bringing fun to the hospital and helping children cope with their illness
  • £1,420 could buy a portable and wearable heart monitor to track the heart beats of young cardiac patients
  • £2,423 could buy a vital signs monitor, crucial for keeping a close eye on the condition of every patient at GOSH
  • £12,682 could buy a defibrillator, a vital bit of kit used to restart a child’s heart if it suddenly stops pumping blood around the body
  • £20,000 could fund 455 nights in the much-needed parent accommodation, meaning children and parents don’t have to be apart during their time in hospital
