Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I am honoured to be running the London Marathon for UKTS. My sister has Thalassaemia major and I’ve grown up watching her deal with the challenges associated with this chronic disease. I’ve been fascinated at how her treatment has developed positively over the last three decades and I have seen first-hand how the advancement of treatment can change a patient’s daily life. The work that the UK Thalassaemia society do is so beneficial for both patients and their families, by providing information, raising awareness and funds for innovative research and new technologies. 

My running journey started when I completed the couch to 5k a few years ago. I have not run anything longer than a half marathon, so this will be a challenge for me but one I am really looking forward to complete. It’s been on my bucket list for years! I run about 3-4 times a week, usually in a park - Burgess, Southwark and Richmond park are the ones where you are most likely to find me!
