I'm taking part in the TCS London Marathon as part of #TeamStroke

I’m running the TCS London Marathon 2026 with #TeamStroke.

This cause is close to my heart. My family has been personally affected by stroke, and I’ve seen how life changing it can be. In the UK, someone has a stroke every five minutes, that’s around 100,000 people every year, and over 1.4 million survivors are living with the long-term effects.

That’s why I’ve swapped the sofa for the streets, to help raise vital funds for the Stroke Association. They do incredible work providing support, funding research, and campaigning for better stroke care, but they need our help to keep going.

Every donation, big or small, gets me one step closer to the finish line, and helps stroke survivors rebuild their lives.

You can also follow my training journey (and probably some sore legs and dramatic sweating) over on TikTok: @tomsmarathon.

Thanks so much for your support — and wish my legs luck! 💜

Gift Aid I am a UK taxpayer and would like to Gift Aid this donation and any donations I have made in the past four years, or I make in the future to the Stroke Association. I understand that if I pay less Income Tax and/or Capital Gains Tax each tax year (6 April to 5 April), than the amount of Gift Aid claimed on all of my donations, it is my responsibility to pay any difference. If you pay Income Tax at the higher or additional rate and want to receive the additional tax relief due to you, you must include all your Gift Aid donations on your Self-Assessment tax return or ask HM Revenue and Customs to adjust your tax code.
