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

I’m running the London Marathon in 2025 to raise money for Asthma and Lung UK to support their incredible work, care and research. This cause is extremely close to home for me. My mum is a chronic asthmatic, which has resulted in her being hospitalised multiple times throughout her life and as a consequence she must take medication each and every day just to help her breathe. Previous members of my family, including my Grandad also suffered with asthma. The condition continues to be an issue amongst children and adults in the UK so any small donation would help tremendously. 

I have never ran a marathon before so this event will be a huge challenge for me, please come along on this journey with me. 

I will be completing running events, including a half marathon and organising several fundraising events to help in my efforts of raising the funds for the charity. 

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!
