Battersea Park Half Marathon · 18 October 2025 ·

The digital industry is experiencing epic growth but there is a talent shortage. Over 130,000 tech jobs are available each year in the UK but students are leaving education without sufficient knowledge and experience to get the job. We want to change this. With Ada, students can learn relevant digital skills to pursue their dream job in tech. We are a unique community which puts computer programming at the heart of everything we do. Our students are the future game changers: challenging the norm, excited by change, and resilient in the face of adversity. We want to remove the glass ceiling for women and individuals from low-income backgrounds in the tech industry. Everyone, from any background, is entitled to a quality education and a better future.

Story

I'm incredibly passionate about supporting Ada, the National College for Digital Skills. This specialist further education college is on a mission to empower the next generation of diverse digital talent. They work with leading companies to offer an industry-aligned education, helping young people, particularly from underrepresented groups, get into highly skilled and fulfilling digital careers.

Having completed my apprenticeship at Ada, I saw firsthand how Ada creates opportunities for individuals who would not have had a chance otherwise. This is why I'm running to raise money, to ensure Ada can continue to transform lives by building a more fair and diverse tech industry for all.
