I am running the London Marathon to help raise money for St Raphael's hospice.

So many of us know how important end of life care can be to support patients and their loved ones.

The UK is currently facing a hospice funding crisis and this charity needs your support more than ever to continue to provide such an exceptional service. Please help them to avoid having to cut any more expert nursing staff who can make all the difference at such a difficult and vulnerable time.

I have always wanted to run this race since I was young and it will be my first (and probably the last!) marathon that I will complete.

I would love to raise as much as money as possible for such a worthy cause. This is the first time I have ever asked for sponsorship money so please dig deep!

I will be running in memory of my beloved Father-In-Law Chris who died in November 2024 from cancer.

Thank you so much for helping me to support this fantastic charity.
