London Marathon 2025

Donate to Mark and help them hit their goal of £2000!

I’m running the London Marathon 2025 to fight for lung health!

Every minute, someone in the UK is diagnosed with a lung condition. I want to make a difference. I'm running the London Marathon 2025 for Asthma + Lung UK, the only UK charity that fights for everyone’s right to breathe. 

Lung conditions have taken many members of my family down the years.  My step-grandad, my uncle, my father-in-law and now, more recently, my mum. Every pound I'm able to raise will take us a step closer to a world where everyone has healthy lungs. I just want to raise as much money as I can to help those with lung conditions so they don't have to go through what my mum had to go through.

Just £22 allows one of Asthma + Lung UK's nurses to answer a call on the Helpline, offering potentially lifesaving advice. I'd be very grateful for any donations you could make!

THANK YOU!!

Sunday 6th Apr
Just wanted to say a massive thank you to everyone who has donated so far in helping me reach my target of £2000 in good time. I'm so grateful and I know the charity will be also. We have gone over the target which is brilliant and it would be amazing if we could get up to £2500 or beyond! £2620 would be a great target bearing in mind the marathon is 26.2 miles. Thank you again.

Rest in peace Mum 💔

Monday 28th Oct
Last Friday 25th October, my mum sadly lost her brave and courageous fight with Pulmonary Fibrosis. It’s now made me even more determined to help raise as much money as I can so that others don’t have to go through what my mum did. I’m now dedicating my run to my wonderful mum. It’s now going to be an equally fantastic & emotional day all round.

Thank you to my Sponsors
