I'm thrilled to announce that I am running the London Landmarks 1/2 Marathon on 6th April 2025 for the Harvey Hext Trust.

I was inspired by watching the 2024 London Marathon on the TV and while googling the information, got pulled into pressing the "I am interested button". I was one of the lucky ones chosen to take part and I'm going to run the event with a huge smile on my face, even through what I expect will be hard and tiring parts.

The thing that’s keeping me going throughout my training runs, is the charity I am supporting, “The Harvey Hext Trust”. I am a mum and can feel Sarah Hext’s words and emotion in my heart.

Please give what you can; please cheer me on if you live locally and see me struggling around the streets dragging my feet; please come to London and clap and shout my name as I pass you with that huge smile on my face. Please think about the Harvey Hext Trust.

As part of the 'Team Harvey London Landmarks Half Marathon 2025', we are dedicated to supporting bereaved children and parents who have experienced the loss of a sibling or a parent.

Our mission is to provide high quality, bespoke memory boxes for the children, preserving precious memories of their loved ones. Additionally, we aim to support parents by supplying beautiful bags to safely transport their child's belongings.

Join us in this marathon journey as we strive to create lasting memories and provide essential support for bereaved families.

Thank you, Karen
