TCS London Marathon 2025

Donate to Andie and help them hit their goal of £2000!

I'm running the London Marathon for the Stroke Association!


100,000 strokes happen in the UK each year (that's one stroke every five minutes), you never think it will happen to you or someone you love, until it does. 


As some of you might know, My dad suffered a stroke in November 2014, leaving him with Global aphasia and Epilepsy. The impact of a stroke is profoundly unique—it transformed our world in ways we never imagined. The uncertainty of what lies ahead is something we face every day. 


You know when someone says, "I know what you're going through", but they don't, not really. The Stroke Association provide support not just for survivors but also for the families who are deeply affected. Their webinars, articles and monthly newsletters are more than just updates, they are lifelines filled with stories from people from all walks of life, offering insight into the diverse ways strokes impact people. Your donation can help them provide essential support and resources to those in need. Thank you for being part of this journey and helping to bring hope and help where it’s needed most.

Training has officially begun!

Saturday 28th Sep
Ahh! I started my marathon training plan this week. I’ve run on and off over the past few years, but always for my mental health. This time round I’m focusing on distance and time. I’ve surprised myself already at the progress I’ve made, from getting a bit out of breath from a 2km to being able to run over 6km without realising it. The biggest lesson I’ve learnt so far is how important it is to warm up and cool down, oh and eating before and after (no one tells you how unhungry you are after a big run but you have to get something down!). I also want to say a HUGE thank you to everyone who has donated so far, I’m overwhelmed with the support I’ve received. My mission is to raise awareness of strokes- before my dads stroke I didn’t realise the impact they had to the stroke survivor or their family, it effects every part of your life. My dad was a relatively healthy man before (come on who didn’t enjoy a beer or Friday night takeaway?!), but since his stroke he’s now living with global aphasia, epilepsy, has a pace maker and various medications he has to take on a daily basis. His ability to look on the bright side is inspirational and I’m so proud of everything he continues to do despite the challenges.

Thank you to my sponsors
