Jon & Tom Rome Marathon for NNUH NICU

Tom Dilrew is raising money for Norfolk and Norwich Hospitals Charity

Team: Jon & Tom’s Rome Marathon Fundraising for NICU

Rome Marathon 2026 · 22 March 2026

The award-winning Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) at the Norfolk and Norwich University Hospital is a highly specialist unit looking after the needs of premature and critically ill babies. The NICU is one of only three specialist neonatal units

Story

We are both incredibly thankful to the Neo Natal Intensive Care unit at the Norfolk and Norwich University Hospital for providing excellent post-birth care for each of our youngest children.

Elise, Jon’s youngest daughter, arrived prematurely and required specialist care in NICU. Now having turned 8, Elise is full of endless energy and laughter.

After a traumatic home birth, Finley, Tom’s youngest son, required a blue-light trip to NICU and have cooling mat treatment to try prevent further brain trauma. With his first birthday now soon approaching, Finley is racing ahead in his development and smiling all the time.

10 years since his first marathon in Rome, Tom has managed to convince his siblings to join him in running it again and raise funds for charity.

Please help our local NICU team to do 'more', by making a donation that can provide extra state-of-the-art medical equipment, additional training, improvements to the hospital environment, or better staff rest area facilities - all of which can help save more lives.

Your support helps to make a difference.

Thanks,

Jon and Tom
