My Story
The TCS London Marathon has become an annual, inspiring and colourful fixture in the world’s sporting calendar since the inaugural race on 29 March 1981: a celebration of fun, fundraising and fancy dress. Over the years more than a million people have completed the 26.2-mile course – which runs from Blackheath to The Mall, with a spectacular finish in front of Buckingham Palace, showcasing the very best that the capital city has to offer.
In 2026, I will be taking it on and will be supporting East Anglian Air Ambulance! in memory of my friend Nathan and his sister Samantha
East Anglian Air Ambulance receives no regular government funding and relies entirely on the support of the community.
Their crews are called to, on average, 8 critical care emergencies every day across their two bases, with each tasking costing in the region of £4,250. They can reach anywhere in East Anglian within 25 minutes when every second can make the difference to a patient in their time of need.
Thank you so much for supporting me, every penny will help to save lives across East Anglia and I am so grateful for your donation, whether that's £5 or £500!
