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'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!

Why Asthma & Lung Uk
Wednesday 10th DecSince a child I have had Asthma, but I am wanting to raise more awareness for the less known lung conditions like COPD & Alpha-1 Antitrypsin Deficiency.
Alpha-1 Antitrypsin Deficiency is a condition that isn’t well known but can be life-threatening and is typically genetic. Sadly my uncle passed away in his sleep, caring for my 5 year old cousin at the time. He had seen the doctor the day before as he didn’t feel well but was told to rest it off. Later we found out he was undiagnosed with COPD linked to Alpha-1. Myself and my family had not heard of either of these terms at the time. And even now speaking with friends I often find they have never even heard of COPD or know what it is, unless a family member has suffered from it.
My grandma has also recently been diagnosed with COPD after years of smoking and really struggles with day to day breathing.
Running for Asthma + Lung UK would be my way to raise awareness and honour my family. And help support vital research so more people can breathe freely.
