I'm running 100km in September

I'm running for this amazing hospital because children are amazing and all deserve the best we can give them.

I am a parent of a child who had two brain operations before he was even 3 months old.

My son then needed more operations and lots of physical therapy.

I remember the feeling of being helpless as I wheeled him into surgery, it sitting with him while on a drip.

But I mostly remember the kindness of all the hospital folk that got us through it.

I haven't run for two months due to an ankle injury...this is going to be a challenge for my old lungs and heart as I get back to fitness. But a heart getting fitter is much easier to have than a heart hurting because your child needs medical support.

I'm running for the parents as well as the children. ❤️ And the incredible medical team.

I’m running 100K in September for GOSH Charity!

I’m challenging myself to run 100 kilometres this September to raise money for Great Ormond Street Hospital Children’s Charity (GOSH Charity).

Every day brings new challenges at Great Ormond Street Hospital (GOSH). Every day, around 750 seriously ill children and young people are seen at GOSH from all over the UK for life-changing treatment and care. Every day, doctors and nurses battle the most complex illnesses, and the brightest minds come together to achieve pioneering medical breakthroughs.

And with every kilometre I run, I’ll be helping GOSH Charity give seriously ill children the chance of a better future.

This extraordinary hospital has always depended on charitable support, so please help me to achieve my goal by giving whatever you can; no amount is too small to make a difference.

I confirm I am a UK taxpayer and would like Great Ormond Street Hospital Children’s Charity to reclaim tax on this donation, any future gifts I make, and any donations I have made in the past four years. I understand that if I pay less Income or Capital Gains Tax than the amount claimed on all my donations in that tax year (April 6 – April 5) it is my responsibility to pay any difference. Please note that Gift Aid cannot be claimed by one individual on monies collected from multiple donors e.g., birthday collections.
