Story

My Story

I’m running the London Marathon for MediCinema!

MediCinema builds and runs fully equipped cinemas inside NHS hospitals and health facilities, giving patients and their families the chance to enjoy the magic of film in a safe and accessible environment. These screenings offer a powerful form of emotional relief, distraction, and normality during some of life’s most difficult moments.

I really believe in the healing power of storytelling. I work in the creative industry, so I understand how vital it can be to mentally escape, even just for a couple of hours. I used to run a lot when I was younger, but this marathon will be by far the biggest physical and mental challenge I’ve ever taken on. That’s exactly why I want every mile to count.

The money I raise will go directly toward maintaining and expanding these cinema spaces - funding more screenings, supporting trained volunteers, and helping bring this experience to even more patients across the UK. Everyone deserves the chance to escape, even when they can’t leave the hospital.

I’d love and appreciate for you to follow along, support the cause, donate, and help spread the word about the amazing work MediCinema is doing.

Thank you for your generosity, and see you at the finish line!
