Story

After an amazing experience with the Channel 4 News triathlon team, I've decided to take on the Royal Parks Half Marathon on the 13th of October 2024 in support of the Rory Peck Trust.

The current attacks on democracy have left journalists wounded, imprisoned, and even killed for their work. The funds raised will directly support freelance journalists, enabling them to continue their vital work and uphold democratic freedoms.

Please support me and Rory Peck by making a donation, any donation you can make will make a real difference.

All funds raised by our dedicated runners will go to the Rory Peck Trust and its work supporting, training and helping to protect freelance journalists so they can continue their work, contributing to international newsgathering and upholding our democratic freedoms.

Thank you for supporting all the freelance journalist worldwide.
