Hello Beautiful People!

I'm Lizzy, and I have been BULLIED into running the Hackney Half Marathon by my wonderful nursing colleagues, and I am immensely proud to be fundraising for Barts Charity!

I've worked for Barts Trust since 2020 in a variety of roles from when I first started as a Doctor working through COVID, to gaining specialist knowledge of ITU and Anaesthetics in my career as an Emergency Medicine Physician.

One of my most loved roles is working at the Research Delivery Centre at Mile End Hospital, part of Barts Health NHS Trust, working to provide crucial safety data for novel vaccines coming to market and playing a key role in health promotion and disease prevention.

My Team are fantastic and whilst I am incredibly nervous to be running in a half marathon I know that with their support I'll feel motivated to complete it- those of you who know me well know that exercise is not my forte!

By running the Hackney Half Marathon, we want to give back to the community we serve every day. Your donation will directly support the hospitals of Barts Health — including Mile End — helping to improve care, advance research, and support both patients and staff.

I have only ever run one 5k in my entire life so this is by no means an easy task for me , so any support, encouragement, and of course... donations will go a long way.

Thank you for supporting me and my team. Together, we can continue strengthening research and delivering extraordinary healthcare and improve the lives of Barts patients and staff.
