Join me on Sunday, April 21st, 2024, as I take on the London Marathon in support of Hospice UK!

In the realm of running, a name we hold dear,
Sarah, the founder, whose presence we revere,
With passion and purpose, she blazed the trail,
Her spirit and vision, like a strong gust of gale.

"#noexcuses" she whispered, her motto so clear,
Through hardships and hurdles, through moments of fear,
Sarah led the way, with a heart full of grace,
Guiding her club members in the running race.

In the rhythm of footfalls, her memory lives on,
In the dawn's early light, and the glow of the dawn,
With each stride they take, and each challenge they face,
Sarah's spirit remains, a beacon of grace.

Hospice UK is a national charity collaborating with the government and NHS to ensure the sustainability of over 200 local hospices, particularly during these challenging financial times. Hospice UK provides crucial support to individuals, children, and families navigating the difficult journey of death, dying, and grief. Astonishingly, one in four UK families currently cannot access the care they desperately need during these trying times. We believe it's time for change.

To keep our local hospices open, it takes a staggering £3 million every single day, with two-thirds of this funding relying on individual donations, including sponsorship for dedicated individuals like myself taking on demanding challenges. I kindly request your support in sponsoring my marathon run, helping me reach my fundraising target. Together, we can ensure that everyone affected by death, dying, and grief receives the care they deserve precisely when they need it.

Your generous contribution will make a profound impact on the lives of those in need, bringing comfort and support during their most vulnerable moments. Let's stand together and make a difference!

So let every run be a tribute, a song,
To Sarah, whose spirit in their hearts belongs,
#noexcuses, they'll carry her motto with pride,
As they run side by side, with her by their side.
