Hi, im Lara and I am running the Lisbon Marathon on October 25th, in loving memory of Gwyn, and in deep gratitude to Mary Ann Evans Hospice.

When we brought Gwyn home for his final six months, the hospice stepped in and gave us more than care — they gave us comfort, dignity, and love. They supported Mum and Gwyn through one of the hardest times of our lives, and we will never forget the kindness and compassion they showed.

Now, I want to give something back. Every step of this marathon will be for Gwyn, for Mum, and for all the families who will one day need the same incredible support we received.

Mary Ann Evans Hospice relies on donations to continue their vital work. By supporting this fundraiser, you’ll be helping them to carry on providing care, comfort, and compassion to people when they need it most.

Please, if you can, donate whatever you’re able — every pound truly makes a difference. And even if you can’t donate, sharing this page will go a long way in helping us reach more people.

From the bottom of my heart, thank you for your support. This one’s for Gwyn. ❤️
