Fundraise for Thomley in 2026 – be like Natalie, who is running the London Marathon for us later this year…

“I can’t quite believe I’m writing this — because once it’s written down, there really is no going back! After watching my sister take on the London Marathon last year, I felt inspired to enter the ballot for 2026. I was incredibly fortunate to secure a place, which means I am now officially training for the London Marathon 2026. Having the opportunity to run such a well-known and iconic event feels incredibly special, and it would seem silly not to use this challenge to raise money and awareness for a truly worthy cause.

There are thousands of amazing charities I could have chosen from, but it was important to me to support an organisation that helps individuals and families locally to where I live. Thomley is an incredible centre based in Buckinghamshire that supports people of all abilities and disabilities. It provides opportunities for individuals and their families to take part in a wide range of activities that help support them in everyday life. As a parent to a neurodiverse child, I see first-hand how everyday life can present constant challenges. Thomley offers a place of safety, moments of adventure, understanding, and support for everyone who visits. It is — and will continue to be — a vital, stable place for so many families, as long as it is able to continue to flourish.

Please consider supporting me as I take on the 26.2 miles around London. Every donation, no matter the size, will help motivate me through the training and the race itself, while also supporting local families who benefit so greatly from the work Thomley does. Thank you so much for your support — it truly means more than you know ❤️”
