I'm fundraising for...
Thanks for visiting my fundraising page for my London Marathon! Over 10 million people in the UK live with arthritis, affecting their ability to work, study, care for family, move free from pain and live independently. But arthritis is still poorly understood and far too little is done. That’s why Arthritis UK funds life-changing research, supports those affected and campaigns for change. Arthritis UK won’t rest until everyone with arthritis has access to the treatments and support they need to live the life they choose, with real hope of a cure in the future.

Running for Sue, Graham, Stew & everyone living with arthritis ❤️
Thursday 9th JulRunning the London Marathon 2027 is about so much more than crossing a finish line. I'm fundraising for Arthritis UK in honour of my close family members and everyone living with arthritis every day.
In my profile photo, I'm standing between my nan and my dad—two people who have shown me what resilience truly looks like. I've seen first-hand how arthritis affects everyday life, yet neither of them has ever let it define them.
My dad was diagnosed with arthritis at a young age, but that never stopped him from pushing himself. He went on to complete marathons and Ironman events, proving that arthritis doesn't have to define what's possible. My nan has also shown incredible determination. After years of pain and hip replacements, she's worked tirelessly to regain her mobility and is now back enjoying 5K runs and parkruns every weekend. I've even had the privilege of running alongside her.
Their strength and determination inspires me every day. By taking on the London Marathon 2027, I hope to raise money to support life-changing research, improve access to treatments, and help more people living with arthritis continue doing the things they love.
Every donation, no matter the size, will make a real difference. Thank you so much for supporting me and this incredible cause.
For Sue. For Graham. For everyone living with arthritis. Let's run for them. 🩵🏃
