Good luck Jackie Wilkinson for tomorrow. It’s not too late to donate!

Help Iain Wilkinson raise money to support Leeds Hospitals Charity

Iain and I (Jackie) are taking on the London Landmarks Half Marathon to support the Leeds Adult Transplant Sport Team.

After his life-saving transplant 12 years ago, this amazing group helped rebuild his strength, confidence, and love of sport — and supported our family too. Since then, they’ve helped over 100 transplant recipients do the same.

Now it’s our turn to give back and help future recipients experience the full, active life that transplant has made possible.

Slight twist… Iain is actually a discus thrower, not a runner — so 13.1 miles is a BIG challenge.

This is also a celebration of organ donors and their families, who make second chances possible.

If you can donate or share, it would mean the world.
