I am finally doing it, I'm running the London Marathon in April 2025 in my 50th year, that is 26.2 miles or 42.1km!!! I've had a tough decade unsuccessfully trying to have a family and losing 4 babies - I want to put closure to my 40s with this amazing running event. Running has given me a lifeline & is a great support for my mental health, being a big part of my self care.

I am running for the amazing Shaw Trust, the UK’s largest not-for-profit in the employment and children’s residential care sectors, joining up education, learning and skills, and careers advice, and focusing on improving the life chances of children and adults.

Shaw Trust supports some of the country’s most complex children and young people with high-risk behaviour, multiple needs, adverse childhood experiences and trauma, suicide, self-harm, child and criminal exploitation by providing residential homes, fostering and community based support within our communities.

It would be amazing if you're able to donate to this wonderful cause, supporting vulnerable children and adults & support me with this incredible event. 27th April 2025 please come to London & cheer me on!!!

Thank you so much
