Celebrating Eoin Stein’s Incredible Marathon Fundraising for NHP

Posted 1st July 2025

Earlier this year, Eoin Stein took on the incredible challenge of running the Chester Marathon, and in doing so, raised over £1,000 for the NHP. We were absolutely thrilled when his employer, Toyota, generously match-funded his efforts with an additional £1,000, bringing the total raised to £2,000.

“I found out about NHP, a brilliant cause, when I was entered into my first half marathon at Alton Towers. The number of people NHP helps and the real difference they make to so many lives is just amazing. When I signed up for my first full marathon in my hometown of Chester, I knew I wanted to give something back. Fundraising for NHP felt like the perfect way to do that. I was aware that Toyota would match up to £1,000 if I could raise that amount, but I never imagined I’d actually reach it. I was so thrilled when I did and even more so when Toyota confirmed the match. It’s such a great initiative, and it makes me proud to work for them. Since then, I’ve completed a couple more half marathons, and I’m sure I’ll be fundraising for NHP again in the future.”

We are incredibly grateful to Eoin for his dedication and to Toyota for their generous support. Donations like these make a huge difference to a charity like ours, helping us continue to support young people leaving care to live independently and thrive.
