Story

As many of you know I’m a long time supporter of Samaritans, having run with them for the London Marathon in 2022. It’s now time to take on my next challenge and what a better come back than the biggest half marathon in the world!

Raising money for Samaritans is so important to me, they saved my life, and many other lives too, so thank you all for your support! Read the information below from Samaritans about why your support is so important!

Many people find it hard to speak openly or ask for help, but talking can be life-saving – whether it's with a colleague, family member, friend or helpline like Samaritans. Every 10 seconds, Samaritans volunteers respond to a call for help. Samaritans are available, for free, 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, to listen and support people with whatever they are facing, with no judgement. It’s only your kind donations and 23,000 listening volunteers that ensure Samaritans can always be there for anyone struggling to cope. Thank you for your help.
