Kate's fundraiser for Bodie Hodges Foundation

Kate Parry is raising money for Bodie Hodges Foundation
In memory of Kaylen and Bodie

London Marathon 2026 · 26 April 2026 · Start fundraising for this event

The Bodie Hodges Foundation was set up in 2013 following the death of 10month old Bodie. The charity supports families in Leicester, Leicestershire and Rutland following the death of a child.

Story

I’m running the 2026 London Marathon for the Bodie Hodges Foundation, in memory of two precious children, Bodie and Kaylen.

This marathon is more than just a personal challenge for me — it’s a journey of love, remembrance, and hope. Bodie and Kaylen were beautiful children who left us far too soon. Their families continue to inspire me every day with their strength, love, and courage.

In honour of their memories, I’m proud to be raising funds for the Bodie Hodges Foundation, a charity dedicated to supporting families who have experienced the devastating loss of a child. They offer vital services — from providing bereavement support to creating spaces where grieving families can find hope and healing.

Running 26.2 miles will be tough, but it’s nothing compared to the journey these families walk every day. Every step I take will be in memory of Bodie and Kaylen, and every donation will help ensure that other families are never alone in their darkest moments.

Please support me if you can.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart.

Kate
