Hi, I’m fundraising for WellChild by taking on the challenge of the London Marathon.

I wanted to run for a charity that has a real impact on people’s lives, and WellChild’s work supporting seriously ill children and their families really stood out to me. As a Cheltenham-based charity, it also feels great to support an organisation with local roots that makes such a big difference nationally. They help children receive care at home, surrounded by family and in a more familiar environment, which I think is incredibly important.

I also have a personal connection through a friend who works for the charity, which has given me more insight into the difference WellChild makes every day.

Running a marathon is a huge personal challenge for me, but I’m excited to take it on while raising money for such an important cause. Any support, donation, or share would mean a lot — thank you!
