Birmingham Hospice is the new name for Birmingham St Mary’s Hospice and John Taylor Hospice.

There is a Hospice funding crisis, with the lack of government funding, our amazing hospice needs our help. I manage Relovedbrum By Birmingham hospice In Harborne and I'm greatful to work for this amazing charity. They have been an incredibly supportive organisation, whilst I have worked for them.

It was only fitting that I chose to run London Marathon for Birmingham Hospice after having a direct connection with Hospice care after losing my mum 8 years ago this Christmas and my love for running.

This will be my biggest test ever, mentally and physically but I'm up for the challenge!

I can't tell you how inspired I will be for anything you can spare!

Thank you, Ed
