Writing on her JustGiving page, Emma said: “In 2022 my mum was sadly diagnosed with Motor Neurone Disease and the difficult decision was made that when needed she would have hospice at home.
"Cransley were instrumental in making sure her needs were met and nothing was too much to ask for when the help was required.
"A week before my mum passed I got the news that I would be running the LLHM for Cransley and she was so proud, knowing I will be doing this in her memory is what will get me over the finish line.
