London Marathon 2026 · 26 April 2026 ·

Whizz Kidz provides young wheelchair users with the equipment and skills they need to live life as independently as possible, at home, at school, at work and beyond.

Story

Picture this: every day, as a PE teacher, I witness firsthand the importance of mobility in our lives. It's not just about running faster or jumping higher; it's about the simple, everyday movements we often take for granted. Yet, for over 75,000 young people in the UK, accessing basic mobility tools like wheelchairs is a daily struggle. That's where Whizz Kidz steps in. As the UK's leading charity for young wheelchair users, they're not just providing equipment; they're offering a lifeline of support and opportunities for these incredible individuals to flourish.

As I prepare for the London Marathon 2025, I'm not just lacing up my shoes for a personal challenge. I'm fueled by the belief that every step I take can pave the way for a more inclusive and accessible world for these inspiring young people. It's about bringing awareness to their struggles and creating accessibility within sports.

So, I invite you to join me in supporting Whizz Kidz on this journey. Together, let's make strides towards change and help create a brighter future for all.
