I am running the Hackney Half Marathon on Sunday 17th May 2026, alongside a dedicated teammate (Clara!) who is taking part in the Hackney school's challenge. Together, we are committed to running a combined distance of 26 miles over two weeks, culminating with a final mile for Clara on Saturday 16th May. Our motivation comes from supporting the Hackney Children and Baby Bank, a charity that does incredible work providing essential support to families in our local community who need it most.

The need for assistance has never been greater, as many families face challenges that impact their ability to provide basic necessities for their children. The Hackney Children and Baby Bank plays a vital role in alleviating this hardship by offering resources and care where it matters most. Your support can make a real difference in the lives of these families.

We kindly ask you to join us in this important cause by donating through JustGiving. It’s simple, fast, and completely secure—your details are safe and will never be shared or used for unwanted communications. Donations go directly to the charity, ensuring maximum impact with minimal overheads. Our target is £300, and every contribution brings us closer to making a meaningful change together. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for your generosity and support.
