I'm excited to have been offered a charity place to run London Marathon 2025! I'll be one of 22 runners who will be running the 2025 London Marathon on behalf of United Response, a charity that empowers individuals with learning disabilities, autism, and mental health needs.

Their work transforms lives by providing vital support, advocacy, and opportunities for independence. Every mile I run will be dedicated to the incredible people United Response helps every day, and I hope to raise funds that will make a real difference.

Since 1973 United Response has been fighting for a society where everyone has the right to live the life they choose, no matter their disability.

United Response's first service was a single house for twelve adults in West Sussex. Now, we operate in over 350 locations, employing over 3,500 staff and supporting over 2,000 people.

The core of our work is supporting people with learning disabilities, autistic people and mental health needs to live independently. Everyone has the right to feel connected, have choice and respect, build relationships, be recognised for their strengths, and call their communities home.

Your donations support people with learning disabilities to develop skills and gain confidence to live fulfilling and active lives. Thank you.
