Martha's Tewkesbury Half!

Raising for Gloucestershire Deaf Association

Event date:

Martha Takes on the Tewkesbury Half Marathon

Martha, our Head of Services, is taking on the Cheltenham Half Marathon in support of Gloucestershire Deaf Association (GDA) — and we couldn’t be prouder.
Every day, Martha works alongside deaf and hard of hearing people across Gloucestershire, helping to ensure they can access the services, support, and opportunities they deserve. From early support and wellbeing services to community connection and advocacy, her work helps turn inclusion from a nice idea into a lived reality.
Running 13.1 miles is no small challenge — but neither is the work GDA does every day.
By supporting Martha’s run, you’re helping GDA continue to:

  • Provide vital services to Deaf and hard of hearing people
  • Champion inclusion and accessibility across our communities
  • Ensure Deaf people are not an afterthought, but part of the conversation from the start

Every donation, no matter the size, helps make a real difference.
Thank you for backing Martha, cheering her on, and supporting the work of Gloucestershire Deaf Association 💙
Let’s get her to that finish line — together.

Our updates

Final push. Let’s get this over the line 💛
This is Martha.
Out training. Showing up. Putting in the miles.
Not for herself… but for the people we support every day at GDA.
On race day, it’s just 13.1 miles.
But behind that is hours of commitment, discipline, and purpose.
And now we’re in the final stretch.
If you’ve been meaning to donate, this is your moment.
If you’ve been watching from the sidelines, this is your nudge.
Every pound makes a difference.
Every share helps us reach someone new.
Every bit of support reminds Martha she’s not running this alone.
👉 Donate here:

Let’s give her the finish she deserves 🙌
