Mary's Marathon for Mountbatten

Mary Banks is raising money for Mountbatten Isle of Wight

Isle of Wight Marathon · 4 October 2026

Mountbatten is the Isle of Wight's only hospice and is known for innovation across the UK and beyond. We provide expert medical, nursing and domiciliary end of life care and bereavement support to people in their own homes, including care homes, in our Newport building and in the local hospital.

Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I've been training since June for my first ever marathon here on the Isle of Wight. Despite many people telling me "ooo that's a tough one" and, "you know how hilly it is?!" I am determined and ready.

Every day working at Mountbatten I meet the most inspiring people, and on every run I think of those who keep pushing themselves in our gym, and of those that would relish the chance to take on such a challenge but no longer can.

As financial pressures for Hospices continue to increase, I keep doing what I can to support Mountbatten, and I would be so grateful of any donation that you might be able to offer.

Thank you
