My Story

“This year, I am excited to take on the challenge of running the Great North Run in support of Martin House Children's Hospice. Martin House supports children and young people with life-limiting conditions, and their families, across West, North and East Yorkshire.

Martin House ensures that every child and young person facing life-limiting conditions has access to the palliative care they deserve, precisely when and where they need it. The hospice not only provides essential medical support but also creates a nurturing and compassionate environment that extends its care to the families grappling with the challenges that come with such conditions.

By participating in the Great North Run, I aim to contribute to Martin House's vision and help raise awareness and funds for their invaluable services. Palliative care plays a crucial role in enhancing the quality of life for these brave children and their families, and I believe in the power of collective efforts to make a positive impact.

Your support means more than just a donation; it signifies a commitment to ensuring that no child or young person faces life-limiting conditions alone. Together, let's make a difference in the lives of these resilient individuals and their families, supporting Martin House in their mission to provide comfort, care, and dignity during challenging times. Thank you for joining me on this journey, and together, we can create a lasting impact on the lives of those who need it most.”
