Writing on her Just Giving page, Kate said: “This year (old, crumbly body allowing) I will be running the London marathon in aid of Missing People as the charity celebrates its 20 anniversary.

“If I’m honest, I would happily have gone through my life without ever contemplating running a marathon, or even a half-marathon for that matter!

“However, knowing what it’s like to be living with a child missing and believing very strongly in what the workers at the charity do in helping other families like mine, I realised it was a challenge that I had to take.”
