Story
On 13th September Iāll strap 50lb (22.7kg) to my back and run-ruck 50 km (31 miles) along the Suffolk Coast.
Great Ormond Street Hospital treats hundreds of seriously-ill children every single day, yet the NHS doesnāt cover everything.
GOSH Childrenās Charity steps ināfunding redevelopment, research, medical equipment, and family accommodationāall powered by donations.
Iāve never been a patient there, but the thought of a child trading playground time for hospital corridors hits me hard. I canāt prescribe medicine, yet I can shoulder some of their burdenāliterally.
Every step is a statement: these kids and their families donāt walk alone.
Ā£27 could fund an hour of music therapy for a child who needs extra support during their stay.
Ā£40 could help give parents a good nightās sleep in our accommodation, while their child is in hospital.
Ā£58 could fund an hourās research on a new gene editing based therapy to treat Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome, a rare genetic disorder that keeps a childās immune system from working properly.
Ā£152 could fund a Play Specialist to help reduce anxiety for a child who is scared of needles for blood tests.
Donate, share, or just cheer me onātogether weāll lighten their load and turn hospital stays into hope-filled days.
