Run with Isabel, OscaR & fREDDIE

This September, the St Benedict’s community is coming together to run, cheer, and give back, inspired by one of our own.

Isabel, a Decan in the Lower Sixth, is currently undergoing treatment for cancer. Despite facing enormous challenges, she is leading a campaign with extraordinary strength, humour, and heart. She will be running the Ealing Half Marathon on Sunday 28th September 2025 to raise funds for the St Benedict’s Bursary Fund.

Thanks to bursary support, Isabel was able to remain at St Benedict’s during a time of deep uncertainty for her family. Now, she’s giving back, not just by running, but by bringing the whole community together in support of a cause that truly matters.

Joining her is fellow students and Decans, Oscar & Freddie, who are helping to build and lead the campaign alongside Isabel. Together, they are uniting the school community behind this meaningful cause.

Whether you run, cheer from the sidelines, or make a donation, your support will help ensure that no student misses out on a St Benedict’s education due to unforeseen hardship.

This is more than a race. It’s a show of solidarity, gratitude, and hope.

Join us and help turn every mile into a future.
