Thank you for visiting our JustGiving page! We’re super excited to complete the London Marathon & to raise money for the amazing charity Arthritis UK!

We’re going to take on London Marathon 2026, all 26.2 miles each! That's 52.4 combined miles in a day! - AHHHH! 😱😬

(if you know me, Kelly you'd know after every half marathon I have done I swore blind I would never ever do this but here I am, oddly excited!🤣)

We have chosen to raise money for Arthritis UK, to support this wonderful charity to be able to provide amazing guidance to those with Arthritis and their families too. Just like our family, Jamie wasn’t aware of the charity when his arthritis was at its worst & we would not want others to suffer in the silence that Jamie did!

Versus Arthritis invests in breakthrough treatments, the best information and vital online & telephone support for everyone affected by arthritis!

You may be aware, in 2019/2020 Jamie was diagnosed with Rheumatoid Arthritis. After a horrific period full of pain, tests and different medications, we finally had some progress with a market leading medication. Having the right support and medication means we can now continue our crazy busy, active life as a family. Allowing Jamie to live as near to a normal life as possible, something 5 years ago we didn’t think was ever going to be possible, as a result of the disease impacting Jamie’s ability to carry out normal everyday tasks.

We want to enable others in our position to feel supported, to not feel alone & to know what is available to them whilst living with Arthritis. So please help us do just that and support us on our joint journey to the London Marathon Finish Line!

Please if you could sponsor us, any amount would be appreciated to contribute towards us reaching our fundraising goal & giving support to others living in pain!

Thank you

Kelly and Jamie
