Hi, I’m Jed,
On April 26th, I’ll be running the London Marathon to raise funds for Get Kids Going!, a charity that changes the lives of disabled children and young people through sport.
Right now, thousands of young athletes across the UK are waiting for a sports wheelchair — many costing over £5,000 each — so they can chase their sporting dreams. Without funding, those dreams stay out of reach.
As a coach for children’s and men’s football teams, I’ve seen how sport can transform confidence, mental health, and opportunities. But for many disabled children, the biggest barrier isn’t talent or motivation — it’s equipment and support.
Get Kids Going! has already helped hundreds of young athletes reach the Paralympics, win national titles, and simply experience the joy of being part of a team. But they can only do it with help from people like us.
I’m aiming to raise £3,000, which could go towards specialist wheelchairs, coaching, and training for these amazing kids. Every pound will directly help a young athlete on their journey.
Let’s get more kids going — one mile, one child, one dream at a time. 💙🏃♂️
