Meet Eloise - a final-year medical student at King's College London who just ran the Paris Half Marathon to raise funds for Western Regional Hospital in Pokhara, Nepal 🇳🇵

She's already raised over £1,500, with every single penny going directly to the hospital! But there's still time to help her go further 🎉

"Any last-minute donations, no matter how small, make a difference and are greatly appreciated."

If you want to support Eloise, please donate at gofund.me/9432a575d 💙
