Story

Thank you so much for taking the time to visit my fundraising page.

After recently turning 60, I wanted to mark this milestone by doing something truly meaningful. In 2026, I’ll be taking on the challenge of running the London Marathon to raise funds for We Love Lichfield, a charity that does incredible work supporting our local community.

We Love Lichfield is a local community fund run by The Community Foundation for Staffordshire, providing small grants to projects across the Lichfield District. Donations are invested through an endowment fund, with the returns awarded as grants to support local communities now and for many years to come.

Alongside this, I’ll also be running the London Marathon in support of Parkinson’s UK, with a separate fundraising page dedicated to that cause.

Every donation, no matter how big or small, will make a genuine difference and is hugely appreciated. Training for a marathon is no small task, but knowing I’m running for two such important causes will keep me motivated every step of the way.

Thank you for your generosity, encouragement, and support — it truly means more to me than I can say.
