Jake said: “I’m really proud to be doing the London Marathon. I think that QEHB Charity should be celebrated and supported for all the good that it does for patients and their families.

“I took on this challenge primarily because I want to set a good example to my two girls and show them they can do anything that they set their mind to. My hope is that by taking on this challenge I set that example.”
