I’m running 100km in February for GOSH Charity! 

I’m challenging myself to jog 100km this February to raise money for Great Ormond Street Hospital Charity (GOSH Charity).

Childhood is special. It should be a time of joy, wonder, curiosity and fun. Of making friends, making mistakes, and growing into the adults we become. But it’s also fragile, and sometimes all too brief.

That’s why Great Ormond Street Hospital Charity raises funds to help give seriously ill children childhoods that are fuller, funner and longer. For the children from all over the UK who are treated by Great Ormond Street Hospital every day, for children with rare or complex illnesses everywhere, for this generation and all those to come. Because no childhood should be lost to serious illness. 

This charity supported our family back in 2023 by putting us up across the road in the days surrounding Tahlia's Eye surgery. The play workers who made the whole thing less daunting and who accompanied her to MRI's and scans were absolute diamonds. I am forever grateful that the whole experience was made more bearable thanks to this wonderful charity. 

And with every kilometre I run, and every pound raised, we’ll be helping to give seriously ill children the best chance and the best childhood possible.

Please help me to achieve my goal by giving whatever you can; no amount is too small to make a difference.
