In April 2026, I will be taking on the huge challenge of running the London Landmarks Half Marathon for the amazing Our Time Charity. I have had the honour of being a trustee of Our Time since Oct 2024 and have seen first-hand the incredible work they do.

Our Time is dedicated to transforming the lives of children and young people who have a parent with a mental illness (COPMI), and is the only UK charity dedicated to this group. In the UK, this issue affects an estimated 3.7 million children, yet it remains largely unrecognized and under-supported, despite its profound impact on children’s mental health, education, and life outcomes.

My son, Dan, is also running with me and fundraising on behalf of Our Time. His JustGiving page is https://www.justgiving.com/page/dan-farthing-1

Thank you so much in advance for donating whatever you can, it really will make a massive difference.
