My Story

I’m excited to announce that I will be running the London Marathon 2025!
Every year, over 100,000 people in the UK suffer a stroke, and it can change lives in an instant. In 2024, our family experienced this firsthand when my beloved Grandma had a stroke. Watching her fight through the challenges and obstacles that have come since, have been heartbreaking. We sadly lost Grandma in January this year which devastated us all. 
Only 4 weeks later, my Great-Nan also suffered a stroke and sadly died in February this year. It made me realise how crucial organisations like the Stroke Association are, and how they provide vital support and resources for families during these incredibly tough times.
I am running this marathon not only to raise awareness but also to support the amazing work that the Stroke Association does in helping those affected by strokes. Your sponsorship will help fund life-changing research and provide essential services for patients and families in need.
Every step I take during the marathon will be in memory of my Grandma and Great-Nan and everyone else impacted by a stroke. Together, we can help prevent strokes and improve life after one.
100,000 people each year , 281 people a day, 
1 person every 5 minutes.
Any donations considered will be massively appreciated.
With love and gratitude,
Callum
