Our daughter Bea has been helped by various teams at Great Ormond Street over the years and I am always in awe of the incredible people and facilities there. It really is the best children’s hospital in the world. Bea was transported to GOSH by ambulance at just 1 week old and despite the subsequent hospital stays, assessments, appointments and surgery experienced over the years, she is always able to find joy there and wonderful people who bring a smile to her face. 

Every day, 619 children and young people from across the UK arrive at GOSH. Every day, doctors and nurses battle the most complex illnesses, and the brightest minds come together to achieve pioneering medical breakthroughs. And every day is a chance for you to make a difference.This extraordinary hospital has always depended on charitable support and everyone in Team GOSH taking on the iconic 2022 London Marathon will be helping to give seriously ill children the chance of a better future.

As a family we have been so lucky to have the support and help we’ve received from GOSH over the years and I am pleased to be able to do something to help raise more money for them. This is my first ever marathon and I don’t think it will be easy, but I am thrilled and excited to be doing it and hope to make my fundraising target for GOSH.
