Richard Holden
MP for Basildon and Billericay
I'm Richard Holden, Member of Parliament for Basildon and Billericay & Shadow Secretary of State for Transport. On my website, you can find my latest activities and see where I've been, along with having your say through my surveys and petitions. I'm here to help, so please don't hesitate to get in touch using the contact form!
Richard is running the London Marathon 2026
In support of the amazing St Luke's Hospice
So, it’s not probably the most usual manoeuvre for an overweight 40, now, 41 year old…!
But the Billericay parkrun sparked something! (…35 min, 5k…)
And I’ve basically decided to do a marathon in aid of what is an amazing charity who do so much - St Luke's Hospice.
I won’t be quick - if I finish in under 5 hours it’ll be a miracle - but I’m going to give it my best shot!
So if you want to see me succeed, or just want to watch me suffer, I don’t care. Just donate to an amazing cause here:
