Participating in the London Marathon has been a long-held dream of mine since before I even liked running. I am so grateful to now have the opportunity to combine my passion for running with my love for cats.

I am proud to be fundraising for Cats Protection, a charity close to my heart, to support the amazing work they do. Did you know that Cats Protection offers a service called Lifeline (formerly Paws Protect), providing temporary foster homes for cats of individuals fleeing domestic abuse? In 2023, they assisted 229 cat owners and provided loving foster homes for 366 cats. Your support will help me reach my fundraising goal of £2,000 to contribute to this vital cause.

Thank you for coming on this journey with me to my first ever marathon!
