Story

Hello! I will be running the Edinburgh Marathon next year (2026) to raise funds for Brain Tumour Research. This charity do amazing work to not only raise awareness, but also raise funds to go towards the research of brain tumours. Just 1% of the national spend on cancer research has been allocated to the devastating disease since records began in 2002. Not only that, 1 in 3 people are affected by brain tumours. They affect anyone.

This is a cause that is personal to me and my family as some of you will be aware that my uncle was diagnosed with a brain tumour in 2024 and sadly passed away on the 27th January 2026. I will be running and training in memory of him.

My fundraising target is £500 but any and all donations will be greatly appreciated and go towards an amazing cause!

The marathon is going to be tough, the training is going to be hard but it will be nothing compared to the mental and emotional challenges that people living with brain tumours have to endure.

I have a year... let's do this!! 💪🏽🏅
