In memory of Nicole, Bibaa & Josh

Hackney Half Marathon 2026 · 17 May 2026 · Start fundraising for this event

A person is reported missing every 90 seconds in the UK, that's a staggering 170,000 missing people every year. Please help us be there for missing people and their families by supporting our Hackney Half Marathon runners.

Story

I'll be running the Hackney Half in 2026 in memory of good friend Nicole Smallman and her sister Bibaa Henry, who tragically lost their lives on 6th June 2020 and one of my best friends Joshua Tomlinson who sadly passed in August of 2023.

Someone going missing is one of the hardest things to go through, let alone register in your mind. Like most difficult things, it's not something best dealt with alone.

They will always be in our hearts, and there's always help at hand through organisations like Missing People, to help those who've gone missing, or run away from home.

In the time it takes you to read this, another person in the UK will reach a point of crisis. People are facing mental heath, exploitation, debt & food poverty. Right now, no one is immune to these problems. Some people can’t see any escape. They go missing. They face harm. Thankfully, in that moment of crisis there is hope. An exceptional team at Missing People are available. Without judgement. Reaching hundreds of missing people every week. Helping them to stay safe. Giving care and understanding to people on the brink of despair and suicide.
