London Marathon 2025

I’m running the London Marathon 2025 in memory of my daughter Katie who would have been 25 next year

Katie loved life and was a little pocket rocket, always with a smile on her face. To us her asthma was not serious. Katie just suffered a little when she had a cold. We never imagined asthma would take her. Most people, us included thought asthma was just an illness which made you a little wheezy at times. How wrong we were.

In 2012 Katie had an asthma attack. After 4 days in hospital we had to let her go. Katie was 11 years old.

This will be my 4th London Marathon for Asthma UK. If I can raise £4,000 my total raised since 2016 will be over £20,000

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!
