Thank you for visiting our marathon donation page!
Here’s a little bit about why we are running for Terrence Higgins Trust. At the beginning of 2023, I was lucky enough to spend 2 months working at Mildmay Hopsital in London as part of my Physiotherapy placements. During this time, I met many inspiring people living with HIV and was privileged to hear so many fascinating stories about their lives in this time. Unfortunately, there is still a stigma that people living with HIV face everyday and many struggle with coming to terms with the diagnosis, even years down the line, detrimentally effecting their recovery and long-term health. This experience made me want to get involved with the Terrence Higgins Trust, and try to raise as much money as possible for such an important cause.
Harry has been kind enough to join me in the fundraising and preparation for Terrence Higgins Trust, and is looking forward to running to support such an amazing charity!
