Story

This April I will be running the London Marathon with a team of colleagues to support a charity called Spinal Research.

Spinal Research is the UK’s leading charity funding research around the world to develop effective treatments for Spinal Cord Injury.

They exist to beat paralysis and believe in a future where it is no longer a life sentence, and their research is directly helping people across the globe.

There was a long period where little progress was made finding effective treatment for Spinal Cord Injury. But in recent years tremendous medical advances have been made and these advances are starting to have a large positive impact on the lives of people who suffer from Spinal Cord Injuries.

Your donation can be the catalyst for change.

Every pound/euro you contribute goes directly to Spinal Research, supporting cutting-edge research projects that have the potential to transform lives.

I will be incredibly grateful for every contribution, and know from previous races how powerful they will be in those final, painful miles!
