It’s this weekend!!

I'm fundraising for...

My team!

Ten years ago, I was a newly qualified paramedic who had just secured a ballot place in the London Marathon. Having worked alongside London’s Air Ambulance and been inspired by the incredible work they do, I decided to raise money for the charity. I visited the helipad, met the team and saw first-hand the mission I wanted to support. London Marathon 2017 was an amazing experience, and I was so pleased to be supporting such a worthy cause! 

Fast forward 10 years, and I’m incredibly proud to now be a flight paramedic within the LAA team. 

Every day, I see the difference London’s Air Ambulance makes to critically ill and injured patients and their families. I also see how vital fundraising is in helping us continue this lifesaving work.

So, 10 years on, I’m lacing up my running shoes again!

I’ll be running the Royal Parks Half Marathon in October 2026, followed by the TCS London Marathon in 2027, to raise vital funds for London’s Air Ambulance.

Please support my fundraising and help us continue saving lives and bringing hope to people across London. Every donation makes a difference.

The team at LAA are an inspiring and dedicated group of people and it continues to be a privilege to work alongside them.

London’s Air Ambulance is the charity that delivers an advanced trauma team to London’s most seriously injured patients. Your donation will help save more lives by keeping the helicopter in the air and the rapid response cars on the road, ready for when they are needed most. By providing intervention as quickly as possible after injury, London’s Air Ambulance Charity aims to give patients the best chance of survival, and best quality of life, after trauma.

I will be running in Royal Parks Half Marathon for London's Air Ambulance Charity. Please give what you can to help save lives in London.
