I’m running the AJ Bell Great Scottish Run Half Marathon for Lynsey and Maggie’s 🧡

I got to know Lynsey through the credit union movement,and we just clicked because anyone who knows her will know what an amazing and inspirational person she is. I was absolutely gutted when I heard about her cancer diagnosis this year.

Like so many people, cancer has touched my own family too, so I know just how devastating a diagnosis can be, not only for the person going through it, but for everyone who loves and supports them. When I heard about Lynsey, I wanted to do something positive and show my support in a way that could also help others going through the same thing.

So, on 4 October 2026, I’ll be taking on the AJ Bell Great Scottish Run Half Marathon to raise money for Maggie’s.

Maggie’s has been there for Lynsey and those around her, providing free practical, emotional and social support. I want to do whatever I can to support the incredible work they do for people affected by cancer.

I’m also delighted to be part of Lynsey’s Dream Team, alongside George Nedley and Klaire Klos from Scottish Police Credit Union. Between us, we’ll be taking on the 10K and Half Marathon and hopefully raising as much as possible for Maggie’s.

13.1 miles is going to be a challenge for me, and honestly bricking it, but every training run and every mile on the day will have a very special reason behind it.

If you can sponsor me, no matter how small the amount, I’d be incredibly grateful. And if you can share my page too, that would mean a lot.

This one’s for you, Lynsey. 🧡
