I’m running the London Marathon 2026 to fight for lung health!

Every minute, someone in the UK is diagnosed with a lung condition. I want to make a difference. I will be undertaking my biggest challenge yet ! I'm running the Brighton, Manchester and  London Marathons in 3 consecutive weeks for Asthma + Lung UK, the only UK charity that fights for everyone’s right to breathe.I chose  this special charity because tragically Harry lost his life in February at just 19 to complications from pneumonia. This is happening to more and more young people and I want to raise awareness and much needed funds. There are  so few charities that provide research and support for lung diseases so every penny raised really does matter.  Every pound I'm able to raise will take us a step closer to a world where everyone has healthy lungs. I will be dedicating these marathons to Harry’s memory. 

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!
