My London Marathon Fundraising Journey 🏃♀️✨
Nurliyana Ain Abdul Ghani
My Story
“One marathon, countless futures — let’s make this journey matter.”
This year, I’m taking on the incredible challenge of running the London Marathon to raise money for VICTA, a charity that supports blind and partially sighted children and young people.
As an ophthalmologist, I see every day how precious vision truly is — and how devastating its loss can be. Sight is something many of us take for granted, yet living without it brings immense challenges. But there is hope. With support services, we can transform lives by restoring sight or helping children live more independently with vision loss.
My fundraising target is £2,250, and with your support, we can reach it. Every pound truly makes a difference.
Running this marathon is my way of standing with those who face the world without sight, and with your help, we can give children the future they deserve — one filled with opportunity, independence, and hope.
Thank you for being part of this journey with me. Together, let’s make every mile count.
Help to change the lives of children and young adults with sight loss
Each day, four more children will be diagnosed with sight loss.
Vision-impaired children are twice as likely to be bullied.
1/3 will suffer from depression and other mental health issues.
VICTA is a small but national charity in the UK that empowers children and young adults who are blind or partially sighted and their families. Aware that feelings of isolation and loneliness are dominant within the world of vision impairment, VICTA uses sport and activity-based learning as a positive setting for social interaction. For blind and partially sighted young people, involvement in team-based activities can be positively associated with social acceptance and a sense of belonging, especially where such involvement is characterised by positive coaching, progressive skill development and peer support. VICTA work hard to help young people question limiting presumptions they might have, helping them to view themselves and their potential in a new way. VICTA want them to be able to make a difference to their own lives.
By supporting VICTA, you’re not just giving — you’re opening doors. Your donation can help provide:
Family activities which support and empower families with a vision impaired child through shared experiences
Young Achievers activities for 0-10 year olds, designed to support families with very young children who have just received a vision impairment diagnosis
Pre-teen and Youth Activities for 10-17 year olds, which offer hands-on learning and support personal growth in fun, safe and supportive environments
Young Adult Activities which support the development of life skills and the transition into adulthood and the workplace
Opportunities for visually impaired young people to engage in sport on their terms, whether for fun, social connection, or competition. We show how sport can be inclusive, ensuring every child has the chance to participate and thrive
