In April, I will be running the London Marathon in memory of my grandad, Dave Mountford and raising essential funds for the Douglas MacMillan Hospice.

The Dougie Mac looked after my grandad for the last few months of his life, and went above and beyond to do whatever they could to make his last days comfortable. Being able to raise money for such an amazing charity will be an honour, and will be all the motivation to complete the marathon.

Having never ran a marathon before, this will be a MASSIVE challenge, but one which will be so worth it. I will be holding multiple fundraising events to reach my £2000 goal.
