In April 2026, I will be running the Manchester Marathon in aid of Alzheimer's Society. This is a deeply personal cause because my Grandad has dementia, therefore I know first-hand how it affects not only the individual but also their family. To watch someone you looked up to as a child slowly deteriorate over several years is heartbreaking, and has now inspired me to help make a difference.

Due to the fantastic and vital work that Alzheimer's Society does to support those living with dementia and provide hope for the future, I am proud to dedicate my first marathon to this cause - and to my Grandad.

Every donation will help make a difference, and with your support I'm sure we can reach - or even exceed - the fundraising goal.

Thanks for all of your support!
