My first London Marathon and I'm doing it for The Children's Society! Despite doing a few marathons now, I think this one is definitely going to be a big, emotional sob fest. If you’d told little me who loved to run and play sport that she’d be training for not one, not two, but THREE marathons all in the first four months of 2025..well she’d be pretty thrilled I think. I was always lucky to be able to do what I love and thrive as a child and so running for this charity to help those get the love and support they need is enough to fuel me for the next few months of training.

Anything you can give would be amazing! Mile by mile together we can build a society for all children: a society where children can thrive, not just survive.

Every child needs the care and protection of adults, and teenagers are still children. Without the help of those around them – their parents, carers, teachers – young people can’t access the support they need.

That’s why The Children’s Society have been working for more than 140 years to protect every childhood. They make sure young people can access vital support when they need it most and campaign for a world where every child can grow up safe, happy, and hopeful.

Now, it’s time for all of us to step up, speak out, and stand alongside young people.
