I’m running the London Marathon 2025 to fight for lung health!

I’ve suffered with asthmas since the age of 5. I was taken to the hospital after suffering asthma attacks, and would find that even a laughing fit would trigger me. This year I started running and found that my lungs felt okay. I’ve done a 5k, 10k and half marathon. I’ve always said that when i’m 18 I’ll be running a marathon & here I am. On marathon day i will be 18 years and 7 months old. I am excited and proud of myself. I hope that you’ll give generously to this charity as it means a lot to me and my family.

Every minute, someone in the UK is diagnosed with a lung condition. I want to make a difference. I'm running the London Marathon 2025 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!
