I'm running to help save lives in London

Hi everyone, I will be running the 2027 London Marathon on behalf of The Number 8 Foundation for The London Air Ambulance in memory of one of my best friends George Casey. 

On Sunday 30th July 2023, George was tragically hit by a drunk & speeding motorist. The London Air Ambulance responded within minutes and worked their hardest on him before he was transferred to the critical care unit at Kings College London. This is where his family met their real-life angel nurses and doctors who did everything in their power for George and his family and friends. George sadly passed away on the 5th August, aged just 26. He will always be deeply missed.

London’s Air Ambulance is the charity that delivers an advanced trauma team to London’s most seriously injured patients. Your donation will help ensure the helicopter and rapid response cars are ready for when they are needed most.

Any donations would be greatly appreciated 💙
