My Story
I'll be running the London Marathon on April 21st 2024.
I completed the Cardiff Half Marathon November 2023 so now it's time for the big one! I've never been much of a runner but have grown to love running over the last year or so. I wanted to do something big as I enter my 40's and for some reason decided this was the thing to do! 🥴
Anything you can spare to sponsor me would be massively appreciated!
A little about who I'm fundraising for...
We can all see what's happening in Palestine.
Please help me raise money for MAP, who are giving vital aid to people who are in one of the most desperate situations in the world right now.
More from MAP and the vital work they're doing:
Medical Aid for Palestinians (MAP) works for the health and dignity of Palestinians living under occupation and as refugees.
We provide immediate medical aid to those in great need, while also developing local capacity and skills to ensure the long-term development of the Palestinian healthcare system.
MAP's vision is a future where all Palestinians can access an effective, sustainable and locally-led system of healthcare, and the full realisation of their rights to health and dignity.
Through our programmes in the West Bank, Gaza, East Jerusalem, and Lebanon, we work with trusted and experienced local partners to achieve this vision. Our programmes, designed and delivered by Palestinians, provide access to essential health services and build local knowledge and skills to address Palestinian health problems. In times of humanitarian emergency, we are ready to respond rapidly with aid and assistance.
MAP is also committed to bearing witness to the injustices caused by occupation, displacement and conflict. We speak out in the UK and internationally, and ensure Palestinian voices are heard at the highest levels, to press for the political and social barriers to Palestinian health and dignity to be addressed.
