I’m running the London Marathon 2026 to fight for lung health!
Every minute, someone in the UK is diagnosed with a lung condition, one of those people was our Dad Jules.
The best Dad in the world (to my brothers and I).
And that lung condition took him from us far too soon.
Not that you ever really lose the people you love, as he lives on through me, my brothers, my mum, his nieces, and nephews and all that loved him. All the people who were touched by his kindness, curiosity, silliness and wit.
I want to contribute to research into such lung conditions, and asthma.
I want to make a difference, which is why I'm running the London Marathon 2026 for Asthma + Lung UK, the only UK charity that fights for everyone’s right to breathe.
Every pound I'm able to raise will take us a step closer to a world where everyone has healthy lungs.
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!

Hi Nina - we really loved your dad and were really shocked when we learned about his passing. He was such a gentle soul! We didn't know you were running the marathon and wishing you best of luck! Carolina and Lionel (flat 39 new court)
