In September 2025, one of my running dreams will come true, running the Berlin Marathon. This Marathon will be extra special as I will be honoured to run in memory of Jill, raising awareness and fundraising for The Brain Tumour Charity.

The Brain Tumour Charity and Dougal's Dino-mite fund became a huge part of Jill's life to honour her beloved son. Jill was and will always be an inspiration, as her strength and courage helped her to face the challenges that life brought her and she found a way to move forward.

Running the Berlin Marathon and fundraising towards TBTC and the Dino-mite fund is my way to honour Jill's legacy and keep her hard work going. Every step, every mile will be in memory of a greatly missed friend. Jill this one is for you! 💚

The Brain Tumour Charity is the world's leading brain tumour charity and the largest dedicated funder of research into brain tumours globally. Committed to saving and improving lives, we're moving further, faster to help every single person affected by a brain tumour.

We're set on finding new treatments, offering the highest level of support and driving urgent change. And we're doing it right now. Because we understand that when you, or someone you love, is diagnosed with a brain tumour a cure really can't wait.

Join us on the streets of the German Capital to take on one of the greatest international marathons in the world! This fantastic challenge starts at the Victory Column and leads you past some of Berlins most famous sites.
