On Sunday, April 26th, 2026, I'll be running the London Marathon to raise money for a charity that's incredibly close to my heart: TOFS.
As a family, we've experienced first hand the invaluable support TOFS provides. They are a wonderful charity dedicated to helping families of children born with Tracheo-Oesophageal Fistula and/or Oesophageal Atresia. Now, it's my turn to give something back and help them continue their amazing work.
To kickstart my fundraising and add a little extra challenge, I'll be growing a beard from Sunday, October 26th, 2025—exactly 26 weeks before the big day. This "Beard-a-thon" will run all the way up to the marathon itself. I'll be providing regular updates (with some neat trimmings along the way, of course—I don't want to look like one of Roald Dahl's Twits!) to show the progress. The beard will only be shaved off after I cross the finish line.
By taking on these challenges, I hope to raise as much money as possible to ensure other families can benefit from the same level of care and support we did. Please follow my journey and help me reach my fundraising goal.
