My Story

Thank you for visiting my fundraising page!

Long story short... I am running the 2023 London Marathon on my 31st birthday for Child Bereavement UK!

My Why

In 2009, my older brother Mark passed away in his sleep from an undiagnosed heart condition at 19 years old. I was 17. Overnight, my life changed drastically and I won't lie, it was tough.

My Cause

Child Bereavement UK supports families and educates professionals both when a baby or chid of any age dies or is dying, and when a child is facing bereavement. It's an organization I wish I had access to when I was 17.

My Ask

This year on my 31st birthday, April 23rd, I will be taking on the London Marathon, my first marathon (eeek! It's scary!) for Child Bereavement UK. This journey is definitely going to challenge me in more ways than one. I would love if you would pass on some words of encouragement and help me by donating to this brilliant cause. 

If you are donating in honor of someone, let me know! I would love to run in honor of your loved ones. Let's help each other and let's help the families so greatly impacted by Child Bereavement UK.
