Supporting the AWARE Foundation's effort in marine conservation

Join Me on My Mission to Protect Our Oceans

I am excited to announce that I will be running the 2026 Manchester Marathon to raise vital funds in support of the PADI AWARE Foundation and their incredible work in marine conservation. This cause is close to my heart, and I’m inviting you to join me in making a real difference for our oceans.

Why PADI AWARE Foundation?

Since 1992, PADI AWARE Foundation has been at the forefront of efforts to protect marine life and restore our oceans. Thanks to the passion and generosity of supporters like you, their achievements include:

·         Securing protection for 104 species of shark and ray

·         Funding over 200 grantees as part of the Blueprint for Ocean Action

·         Removing more than 2.5 million pieces of debris from the ocean floor

These accomplishments are just the beginning. The ongoing work of PADI AWARE Foundation is essential to achieving a balance between humanity and the ocean, ensuring a vibrant and healthy future for generations to come.
