Nissan has announced that its Diversity, Equity and Inclusion Ambassador Adele Roberts will be attempting to set a Guinness World Record for the fastest marathon completed with an ileostomy
She will be joined on the start line by fellow Nissan ambassador and Paralympic Athletic Richard Whitehead MBE.
Although this will be Adele's third London Marathon, this one is particularly special. Over the past two years, Adele has been sharing her story after being diagnosed with stage two bowel cancer. As a result of her surgery to remove her tumour, she has a stoma while her bowel healed alongside chemotherapy. In 2022, she received the news that she was free from cancer.
The Nissan Possibilities Project is proud to support the LGBTQ+ community, and was delighted when Adele Roberts chose to fundraise for the Attitude Magazine Foundation. Founded in 2018, Attitude Magazine owner and publisher, Darren Styles OBE, to help organisations intent on making a difference across LGBTQ+ communities. Since then, it has provided funding for charities, groups, and individuals that have helped LGBTQ+ people lead happier lives and fulfil their full potential.
