My Story

Hi there, and welcome!

I am absolutely delighted and honoured to be taking on my 10th marathon, the TCS London Marathon, in 2024 for SSAFA, the Armed Forces charity. Please help me reach my target of £4,000 and support our Armed Forces community and their families.

As many of you know, the armed forces is a big part of my family, with both my father and brother serving in the Army, and my mum volunteering for SSAFA for many years. This being the case, it is even more special to be running the London Marathon in 2024 after my brother, Edward, recently transitioned back into civilian life after a brilliant career with the Royal Engineers. Now more than ever we appreciate the vital work SSAFA does for the armed forces community.

SSAFA is a trusted source of practical, emotional, and financial support for serving personnel, veterans and their families. In 2021 their trained teams of volunteers and employees helped more than 66,000 people, from Second World War veterans to those who have served in more recent conflicts, or currently serving (both regulars and reserves), and their families.

Please do donate whatever you can afford, and even more importantly, please come out and support us when we take to the streets of London in April.

Many thanks for your support and generosity! Keep checking here for updates of my training runs with my four legged friend!
