My Story

Hi everyone 👋

I’m incredibly proud (and a bit nervous!) to say I’ll be running the London Marathon in support of the Ellen MacArthur Cancer Trust – an absolutely amazing charity.

I volunteer with the Trust as a mate on sailing trips, and I’ve seen firsthand just how much of a difference they make to young people who’ve been through cancer. It’s not just about sailing; it’s about rebuilding confidence, making friends, and helping them believe in themselves again.

Being a part of that journey is something really special, and I wanted to do even more. So here I am, signed up to run 26.2 miles (a really long way?!), all to raise awareness and help raise £2,000 for the Trust.

If you’re able to donate, big or small, I’d be so grateful. Every pound genuinely helps get more young people out on the water and back to believing in a brighter future.

Thanks so much for the support, it means the world. 🏃‍♂️💙

Please see below a little bit more about the trust. 

The Ellen MacArthur Cancer Trust is a national charity that takes young people aged 8-24 on sailing and outdoor adventures to inspire them to believe in a brighter future living through and beyond cancer.
