About Jess & Emily
We’re two friends who share several personal connections with Huntington’s disease. We both have a very close friend with a family diagnosis of Huntington’s, and we’ve seen firsthand just how challenging it can be to navigate this genetic condition.
Together, we’re running the 2025 TCS London Marathon to raise funds for the Huntington’s Disease Association. We feel passionate about supporting the HDA’s crucial work, not just for our friend’s family, but for all families who may need advice, advocacy, and practical help in the future.
Jessica Hodges
“Raising money for the Huntington's Disease Association is such a privilege. It’s a cause that is
going to impact people I love, so being able to run with Emily while helping this charity means
the world to me.”
Emily Chesworth
“We recognise the resilience it takes to train for a marathon (especially in the winter!), but
knowing we’re doing it for a purpose close to our hearts gives us the motivation we need. We want
to raise awareness and champion this incredible cause.”
