I’m Running the London Landmarks Half Marathon! 🏃♀️💙
In April 2026, I’m lacing up my running shoes and taking on the London Landmarks Half Marathon in support of the National Autistic Society — a cause that’s incredibly close to my heart.
I work in a preschool, and every day I have the privilege of spending time with the most incredible little ones. One of them — a bright, curious, and absolutely amazing little boy — has autism. Watching him grow, learn and shine in his own unique way has completely opened my heart and changed how I see the world and is one of the most rewarding and inspiring parts of my job!
I’m running for all the children I have had the privilege of looking after — to raise awareness, celebrate their uniqueness, and support a charity that works tirelessly to make the world a more inclusive, understanding, and supportive place for autistic people and their families.
Autism is not something to “fix” — it’s a different way of seeing and experiencing the world. With more awareness, support, and acceptance, children like him can thrive, be understood, and feel truly seen for who they are.
✨ So if you’re able, please consider donating — no matter how small — to help me reach my goal. Your support will help fund vital services, education, and advocacy for autistic individuals across the UK.
Now to prepare, train and run this race — for understanding, for inclusion and to raise awareness for this amazing charity. 🧩💙
