My Story

Those who know me know how much I love running. So in 2026, I want to use the passion I have to help others, make a difference and raise awareness along the way.

In 2026, I’ll be taking on TWO OF THE WORLD MAJOR MARATHONS, in support of two causes very close to my heart.

First, I’ll be running London Marathon for Children with Bowel Cancer. As someone living with Crohn’s disease, this is a charity that truly hits close to home and one I feel deeply connected to.

Second, I’ll be running the Berlin Marathon for IMPACT Melanoma. A close family member is currently battling melanoma at such a young age, and witnessing what they and our family are going through is heartbreaking. It’s a powerful reminder of how precious every moment in life really is.

Running the marathons will be the easy part. The real challenge is raising awareness and support. 

If you’re able to help me get as close to my fundraising target as possible, I would be incredibly grateful.

Thank you so much for your support.
