Story

Hi all

🏃‍♂️ I'm Running the London Marathon 2026 for Barnardo’s! 🏁 On 26th April 2026, I’ll be taking on the challenge of a lifetime — running the London Marathon for the very first time — in support of Barnardo’s, a charity that transforms the lives of vulnerable children and young people across the UK.

As someone who was fortunate to grow up in a safe, loving, and supportive home — and now a proud father of two children raised in that same environment — I know just how vital a stable childhood is. Sadly, not every child gets that chance. That’s why I’ve chosen to run for Barnardo’s, whose mission is to help children be safer, happier, healthier, and more hopeful.

Their motto says it all: “Changing childhoods – Changing lives.”

This is my way of giving back — to help ensure more children get the support they need to thrive. I’ve never done anything like this before, but I’m lacing up my shoes, hitting the pavement, and pushing myself every step of the way for a cause that truly matters.

💚 If you’d like to support me and Barnardo’s, please consider donating or sharing my page. Every pound makes a difference.

Together, we can help change lives.

Thank you

John Fraser
