Story

Thank you for your support with my 2026 London Marathon JustGiving challenge!

On 26th April 2026, I'll be taking on the iconic London Marathon – this has for a long time been personal goal of mine, but I am also to raise vital funds for ShelterBox, a charity that transforms despair into hope when disaster strikes.

Why ShelterBox?

When earthquakes flatten homes in Turkey, when floods devastate communities in Pakistan, or when conflict forces families to flee with nothing, ShelterBox is there. This incredible charity provides emergency shelter and essential tools to families who have lost everything, giving them a foundation to rebuild their lives.

What makes ShelterBox special? They don't just provide temporary fixes. Each green ShelterBox contains everything a displaced family needs: a family-sized tent, solar lights, water purification tablets, thermal blankets, and tools to help them start again. It's not just shelter – it's dignity, safety, and hope in a box.

The Numbers That Matter

£590 provides emergency shelter for an entire family

Over 2 million people have been helped since 2000

Present in 95+ countries when disasters strike

I appreciate your support as I take on the challenge for a great cause 💪
