Story

London Marathon 2026: Running in Memory of Lynsey for Eden Dora Trust

I’m running the London Marathon in 2026 to honour my incredible sister, Lynsey, who tragically passed away at just 15 from Encephalitis. This marathon has always been a dream of mine, but it feels even more meaningful now that I’m running for a cause so close to my heart.

The Eden Dora Trust is a charity that supports families affected by Encephalitis, providing vital resources and a lifeline during one of the most difficult times a family can face. Losing Lynsey was an unimaginable heartbreak, and I’m doing this in her memory, hoping to raise both awareness and funds to help others facing this cruel illness.

Every step I take will be for Lynsey, for all those battling Encephalitis, and for the families whose lives have been changed forever. Your support means the world to me, and together, we can make a difference in the lives of so many.

Thank you for your kindness and generosity.

I am hoping to make all my family and friends proud. Wish me luck!
