I’m running the Hackney Half with my Homerton theatre team in memory of Dave Edwards, our wonderful colleague

Tabitha Tanqueray is raising money for Homerton Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust Charitable

Hackney Half Marathon 2025 · 18 May 2025 ·

Take part in the Hackney Half 2025 and run this amazing race around Hackney and raise funds for Homerton Hope at the same time.

Story

We’re a close knit family at Homerton, and we’ve worked together through challenging times in recent years. Our dear colleague, Dave Edwards began suffering with mental health problems after the pandemic, through which he had worked tirelessly. He died by suicide in October 2023, leaving our department bereft.

He’s pictured cradling sim-baby in our simulation centre where- with his expertise, drive and passion for medical education- he was always full of humour and wit, bringing the fun to team working.

For every pound raised here for Homerton Hope-our brilliant hospital charity- I’ll also donate a pound to MIND to help others in crisis.*

Raising funds for Homerton Hope enables us to provide the extras for our patients that is over and above what the NHS can. We also support our staff's health and wellbeing.

*max £1000 just in case!
