My Story

I’m running the 2026 London Marathon to raise money for Action for M.E., a cause that’s very personal to me. My partner, Tom, suffers from M.E. (Myalgic Encephalomyelitis), a debilitating condition that affects every part of his life.

Living alongside someone with M.E. has opened my eyes to how devastating and misunderstood this illness can be — the lack of awareness, the limited support, and the daily struggle for basic things most of us take for granted. I’ve seen first-hand how isolating and exhausting it is, not just physically but mentally too.

So this run is for Tom, and for everyone else living with M.E. It’s my way of doing something — however small — to raise awareness, to push for better research and support, and to show that people with M.E. are not forgotten.

Every step I take will be for him and for those who can’t. Thank you so much for supporting me.
