Story
Myself and Ross are running the Edinburgh Half Marathon this year in support of the Peter Gough Foundation, a charity that helps fund and support organisations providing compassionate end-of-life care to people and their families when they need it most.
This cause is deeply personal to me. Like so many others, I’ve experienced what it’s like to sit beside someone you love in their final days. When my dad was in hospital, those moments were incredibly difficult, filled with emotion, uncertainty, and a sense of helplessness that’s hard to put into words.
What stayed with me wasn’t just the loss, but how important the right care, support, and dignity is during that time, not only for the person at the centre of it, but for the family around them too.
That’s why I’m raising money for the Peter Gough Foundation. They play a vital role in supporting and funding the charities and services that do, helping ensure more people receive comfort, respect, and the best possible care at the end of life.
Most of us, at some point, will go through something like this. If you’ve ever been in that position, you’ll understand how much it matters.
Every donation, no matter how small, will go towards helping others receive the care and support they deserve when it matters most.
If you’re able to support, I’d be incredibly grateful ❤️
Thank you for reading and for any support you can give.
