My Story
Growing up around deafness and hearing loss within my immediate family, I've really seen the lack of education and basic support within our society. I'm running this year to raise money for Hear Together, a charity that enables children and adults to live well with any type of hearing loss.
I hope to encourage everyone to embrace any kind of disability that makes us different, including deafness and hearing loss, and not let it define what we can achieve, therefore setting myself the challenge of running the London marathon 2025.
