Story
I’m a proud mother of two healthy girls - Grace is 9 and Amelia is 7. They are my absolute world and every day I’m reminded of how fortunate that makes me!
Parenthood has shown me just how precious - and fragile - a child’s health can be, and it’s this awareness that inspires me to support React, a charity that stands beside families facing the unimaginable: caring for a child with a terminal illness.
I’m definitely not a runner and am starting this journey completely from scratch. But after nine years of applying to the London Marathon (and collecting more reject jackets than I can count!), I finally have the chance to take on the challenge I’ve dreamed about for almost a decade whilst doing it for such an incredible cause!
Running 26.2 MILES (yikes!!) is tough - but nowhere near as tough as what these children and families face every single day. That perspective will drive me through every mile!
I’m so honoured to be raising money for the St. James's Place Charitable Foundation in aid of React. By putting your donations through the St. James's Place Charitable Foundation, St. James's Place will match all monies raised pound for pound.
I am incredibly grateful for every single donation, big or small. THANK YOU for helping me make a meaningful difference x
