Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my Just Giving page.

After my last London Marathon back in 2006 I said never again, but I have come out of retirement for 1 last time. Great Ormond Street Hospital do an incredible job, after being diagnosed with Nephritis when I was 6 years old I was in put in the care of the staff at the hospital, I was a patient there for a good few years and they certainly saved my life so as a thank you I am running for all the staff at the hospital for all there care and dedication in looking after me, and all the other children that they have cared for.
