On April 21st 2024, I will be running the London Marathon in support of WaterAid. For years now running has been a big part of my life, giving me a chance to stay healthy, de-stress and generally feel good about myself. To now get to use the sport I love to raise money for an incredible cause feels like a huge privilege.

The more I learn about WaterAid the more I fall in love with the cause. WaterAid’s work not only helps communities access clean water, but allows for sanitation and hygiene. With these three things, people are less likely to get ill, meaning adults can focus on building businesses and careers, children don’t have to miss school, and girls don’t have to miss out because of their periods. Only with these essential human needs met can people break free from poverty and change their own lives for the better.

Any donation to this incredible cause will go directly to supporting fundamental human rights in communities around the world.
