Thanks for taking the time to visit my London Marathon fundraising page. I'm Ben and I have a degenerative neurological condition called Ataxia. In February 2023 I completed a challenge to visit all 272 London underground stations and posted photos to my Instagram account @Tube.Snapper to raise awareness of Ataxia, a rare condition affecting 500 children and 10,000 adults in the UK.
Next: In June of 2023 I Climbed Mount Snowdon in 16.5 hours using my Wheelchair, Trionic Walking Machine and Adapted Walking Sticks.
Now for something Bigger… “The 2024 London Marathon” and raising more funds and awareness for Ataxia UK
500 children and 10,000 adults in the UK have Ataxia which is a progressive neurological condition that disrupts the messages sent from our brains to our muscles that are used to move, speak, listen and see. Ataxia UK funds research into finding treatments and a cure. It provides support to people with Ataxia to help them life their best life.
The London Marathon has become an annual, inspiring and colourful fixture in the world’s sporting calendar since the inaugural race on 29 March 1981: a celebration of fun, fundraising and fancy dress.
Over the years more than a million people have completed the 26.2-mile course – which runs from Blackheath to The Mall, with a spectacular finish in front of Buckingham Palace, showcasing the very best that the capital city has to offer.
What’s more, these participants have raised over a billion pounds for charity and there have been countless amazing tales of human achievement throughout the event’s history – living up to its aim of helping participants ‘to have fun, and provide some happiness and sense of achievement in a troubled world’.
