I'm fundraising for...

Hi!
I'm running the London Marathon on the 26th April 2026 in support of The Seafarers Charity.
This will be my first Marathon - 26.2 miles across the streets of London - and I'm taking on this challenge to raise money for a cause that means a lot to me.
Working in the shipping industry for Gard, I see first hand the vital role seafarers play in keeping global trade moving. They spend months away from their families, often in difficult and dangerous conditions, to keep our world connected. The seafarers charity provides crucial support to these men & women - from improving safety and welfare at sea to helping seafarers and their families when they need it most.
Training for a marathon is no small task, but my training has already started & I'm determined to cross the finish line knowing I've made a difference.
Any donation, big or small, will help support the incredible work this charity does for the people that keep our seas - and our world - running.
Thank you so much for your support!
Ed
