This was Rhian’s second time running the London Marathon, having secured her place through the disability ballot — “lucky enough (or unlucky!) to get a place,” as she put it!![]()
![]()
On race day, she even ran with her scoliosis X-ray on her back. A powerful and personal reminder of her journey and why she was running. Despite the heat being a real challenge, she pushed through and made it to the finish.![]()

Thank you Rhian for your resilience, honesty, and incredible commitment to supporting others 💙

Huge thank you to Katie Farrall 🏃♀️![]()

Katie ran the London Marathon for us this weekend and we are incredibly grateful for her support, raising over £3k for Scoliosis Support & Research.![]()
![]()
Katie was diagnosed with scoliosis at just 8 years old, and her curve became so severe that she underwent an 11-hour spinal fusion surgery at the age of 12, fusing her spine from top to bottom.![]()
![]()
From that point on, she was often told what she couldn’t do with her new body. Her reason for running this marathon was powerful and personal, to prove to herself that those limits aren’t the full story.![]()
![]()
That message, combined with her determination on race day, is exactly why her effort means so much.![]()
![]()
Thank you Katie for your strength, and incredible fundraising 💙
