Thank you so much for visiting my JustGiving page! Your support means the world to me and the incredible cause I’m running for.

Who would’ve thought I’d be running a half marathon? Certainly not me! Just a few years ago, the idea seemed impossible. But after losing 43kg (95 lbs) - a journey that reshaped my body, mind, and spirit—I’ve learned that even the most significant challenges can be conquered with grit and heart. Now, I’m lacing up my shoes for my most challenging test yet: 13.1 miles to support a charity close to my soul.

Derian House Children’s Hospice isn’t just a local charity—it’s a lifeline. Every day, they provide compassionate end-of-life care, vital respite services, and support to children and families facing unimaginable hardships. Their work isn’t just about medical care; it’s about creating moments of joy, comfort, and dignity for families and children.

Here’s how YOU can help:

Every pound you donate will go directly to Derian House, funding everything from pain relief treatments to family memory-making activities. Whether it’s £1 or £50, your generosity will light up lives.

Training updates:

Follow along as I share my journey—the early morning runs, the blisters, the triumphs, and the days when the couch screams louder than my trainers. Your encouragement will keep me going when the miles get tough!

Let’s make every step count. Together, we can ensure Derian House continues its extraordinary work. Thank you for being part of this mission and for believing in me.
