On Sunday 8 October I will be taking part in the Royal Parks Half Marathon, and at the same time raising money to help more people enjoy the benefits of an active life. While I could have done more training, I know I am lucky to be able to lead an active life. Sadly millions of Londoners, particularly from deprived communities, have higher risks of obesity, poor mental health, cancer, stroke and heart disease as a result of inadequate activity levels.

Your donation will help London Sport do more work to break down the barriers and provide opportunities for children and adults in the most deprived communities to be active.

Thank you!
