I’m running the London Marathon as part of Team Breathe in honour of my incredible dad and to help raise awareness and funds for Asthma & Lung UK.

Earlier this year, our world changed forever when we suddenly lost my dad. Lung conditions are the third most common cause of death in the UK, yet they remain underfunded, under-researched, and often overlooked.

My dad was truly one of a kind, he was funny, caring and wonderfully loud. His heart was as big as his sense of humour, and he had a way of bringing joy into everyone’s day.

Although my dad would say I’m mad for signing up (knowing full well I’m not a runner), he would have been my biggest supporter. Every step I take on that marathon route is for him.

Let’s make every breath count!

I’d be incredibly grateful for your support. Your donations will help Asthma & Lung UK fund vital research, provide support, and raise awareness for life changing lung conditions.
