Story

Hello & thank you for visiting my Just Giving page!

I was lucky enough to be offered a charity place to run at the TCS London Marathon on the 26th April 2026! I haven't run for a long time so I'm going to start training soon and will try and update you on my progress via this page!

I am running for Mind, which is a mental health charity. We all know someone who has experienced struggles with mental health, and it's charities like Mind who are able to help and give support to those who need it.

It's a charity that is close to my heart. My own mental health struggles started in 2022, just after I had fallen pregnant with my son. They then carried on after I had him, and without charities like Mind, I'm not sure if I would have been able to bond with him. I still have anxiety and low mood most days, but it's amazing to know there always charities like this to reach out to. I'm so lucky to have such an amazing support network but not everyone has this and they need charities to help them through.

I would be so grateful for any donation you are able to give, nothing is too small!

My aim is to complete the marathon in sub 4 hours however that might be a little adventurous so we shall see how I get on 😂.

Thank you and lots of love xx
