Jess' London Marathon Adventure 2025

Jessica Phippard

I genuinely mean it when I say how 'lucky' I am to get a ballot place in the London Marathon 2025; not because I have just recovered from my last marathon (Paris 2019) but it also means I get to raise money for two charities that are really close to my heart.

Firstly, Ordnance Survey has a Corporate Charity Partner, Mental Health UK, that we have been in partnership with since March 2023. They work in sharing resources on facilitating conversations around Mental Health, as well as various programmes that support different groups across the UK. Learning about this charities work over the past couple of years has been a real honour, so I want to run the marathon for them, to continue to support our partnership.

Secondly, I couldn't not run a marathon without supporting Mountbatten Hospice (Hampshire) - Loosing my mum so young has come with it's challenges, but I will never forget the care that Mountbatten gave both my mum and our family in a time where we really need it. One thing that I hold so dearly, is the help that I still see them giving families today in the Hampshire area!
