Story

I'm supporting Shine by taking on the London Landmarks Half Marathon in 2024!


I will be running the LONDON LANDMARKS HALF MARATHON in April 2024
I will be doing this for a cause that is close to home and raising money for a charity called shine ✨ 🌞
The charity raise awareness and help families with spinal bifida & hydrocephalus.
Their support is out off this world and such a lovely connection off people.

We was told in October 2022 that our daughter had spinal bifida at our 20 week scan and she wouldn’t have mobility from her waist down and will have bladder & bowel issues. We had the opportunity to undergo surgery whilst still pregnant to give her a better quality of life. Poppy underwent fetal surgery whilst still in the womb at 27 weeks to close up her spinal cord. She was then born at 31 weeks and came out an absolute fighter she had a 3 week nicu stay in kings college hospital whilst her back was still healing and she was still growing. Every single day she has shown us how brave and strong she is. We do not know what the future holds for her yet but we know that whatever it is she will fight through it!


I am looking to raise £500 and any donations would be very much appreciated
For anyone who knows me this is a big challenge for myself but it isn’t half the challenge my daughter has gone through and will go through for the rest off her life! But she’s a fighter and has been from day one and she will always fight her disability and SHINE ✨ 🌞
