Story

Running the 2027 London Marathon in memory of my mum ❤️

In April 2027, I’ll be taking on the London Marathon for NARS – Norfolk Accident Rescue Service, and in memory of my wonderful mum, who sadly passed away earlier this year.

I chose NARS because it’s a charity that is very close to my heart. As a Community First Responder, I’ve seen first-hand how important it is to have people and services ready to help when someone needs them most. NARS plays a vital role in providing emergency medical care across Norfolk, and supporting them feels like a very personal and meaningful way for me to give something back.

Losing my mum has been incredibly difficult, but I wanted to turn some of that heartbreak into something positive — a challenge that would push me, raise money for a cause I believe in, and give me a way to honour her memory.

The London Marathon will undoubtedly be one of the biggest challenges I’ve ever taken on, but I know I’ll have a very special reason to keep putting one foot in front of the other. I’ll be running every mile with Mum in my thoughts.

If you’re able to donate, no matter how big or small, I would be incredibly grateful. Every donation will help support NARS and the incredible work they do across Norfolk.

Thank you for taking the time to read my story, and thank you for any support you can give — whether that’s a donation, sharing my page, or cheering me on along the way.

For Mum. Every mile. Every step. ❤️
