H&F Giving is a charitable foundation set up to support areas of need in Hammersmith & Fulham. Densely populated & diverse, H&F is a borough with stark levels of inequality: we aim to connect the borough, so that every person & every generation can give what they can or get what they need,to thrive.

Story

I'm running the London Marathon 2026 to raise money for the wonderful H&F Giving.

I started running in August 2025, ran my first 10km in October, and will now be taking on the challenge of running the marathon. This might seem a little crazy, but I couldn't let the opportunity pass me by.

I first moved to London almost 8 years ago, and called Hammersmith & Fulham my home. I fell in love with the community and the people - but there are stark levels of inequality. H&F is home to some incredible local charities doing amazing work to tackle poverty, isolation, and community cohesion. H&F Giving supports these charities and works to connect the borough. Although I have a big task in front of me, it feels more important than ever to support the organisations doing vital work in the borough, and I want to do whatever I can to support them.

I need to raise £2,500 by June 2026, and I need your help to do this. Whatever you can give would be a huge help!

Thank you for taking the time to read this and for supporting my journey.
