Every year, around 40,000 children in the UK are left with a brain injury due to accident or illness. For many families, life changes in an instant — and too often, the specialist support these children need simply isn’t available when they need it most.

That’s why I’m running the London Marathon for The Children’s Trust. The Trust works tirelessly to give children with brain injuries the chance to live the fullest life possible, providing vital rehabilitation, education and community support across the UK. Every donation helps ensure that no child or family has to face this journey alone.

This run is also deeply personal to me. In 2004, my dad ran the London Marathon for the same charity, raising an incredible £5,000. Over 20 years later, I’m proud to be taking on the same challenge — and I’m determined to beat his total.

By supporting my run, you’re not just helping me get over the finish line — you’re helping change the future for children and families who need it most. Thank you for being part of this journey 💙🏃‍♂️
