My Story

In April 2026 I will be running the iconic London Marathon in aid of Make-A-Wish® UK!

I previously raised money for Make-A-Wish when I ran a half marathon (The Great North Run) in 2024, and this felt like the perfect charity to support again as I take on my biggest challenge yet: 26.2 miles through London.

Right now over 134,000 children in the UK are eligible for a wish because they are dealing with the grueling daily reality of life with a critical illness. When it comes to their dreams, they deserve to wish for more than a life defined by their illness.
Critical illness brings a child’s joy to an abrupt end but Make-A-Wish UK is part of a global movement that grants life-changing wishes that have the power to turn tears into cheers, rescuing the magic of childhood even in their toughest times and providing a lifeline for families to spend precious time together.

Every donation helps make a wish come true — thank you so much for your support, Evie💙
