Running for Great Ormond Street: Every Mile Makes a Difference

Taking on a running challenge for Great Ormond Street Hospital is about so much more than crossing the finish line. Every mile is a chance to raise money, awareness and hope for seriously ill children and their families.

Great Ormond Street Hospital provides life-changing treatment and care to children from across the UK, and I’m proud to be running to support such an incredible cause.

There will be tough moments, tired legs and plenty of training along the way, but knowing that every step is helping make a difference will keep me going. Every mile, every donation and every bit of support brings us closer to our fundraising goal.

I’m running for the children, the families and the amazing NHS staff who make a difference every single day. ❤️

Here’s to the miles ahead — and to running for something that truly matters.

RBC Race for the Kids 2026

GOSH already cares for children with the hardest to treat cancers, and new treatments are giving hope to children and their families. But these advances have outstripped GOSH's current cancer facilities.

We need a new home for breakthrough treatments and pioneering research, so we can save more children's lives. And because cancer shouldn't get to steal anyone's childhood, we need a place that's more than a hospital – a place that's a school, a playground, a garden, and so much more.

Please consider sponsoring me. Together, we can build it. Together, we can help beat childhood cancer.
