Local performer Alfie Ordinary is to run the Brighton Half Marathon in March 2025 for local HIV charity, the Sussex Beacon, in memory of beloved community champion and drag icon Jason Sutton (Miss Jason). DONATE HERE
In a post on Instagram, Alfie said: “Inspired by Snow White Trash, who is running the Brighton Marathon 2025 IN DRAG, I wanted to do my bit raising money for the Sussex Beacon in memory of our beloved Miss Jason.
“Over the last few years I have been working with Nissan cheering on runners at different marathon events across the country, and each time I am so moved by the incredible people raising money for their chosen charities that I say to myself “Next year I’ll do it,” and so it’s time to put my running shoes on and make it happen!
“It’s my first half marathon so I’m a little nervous, but I’m in great company with G-A-Y‘s Jeremy Joseph helping me train and of course support from you!
“I’ll be starting my fundraising by completing Sober October, so if you’re at a show and want to buy me a drink, pop it in the pot. Then I’ll be doing a number of events between now and March 2025 to raise as much money as I can, but the best way you can support me now is to donate right here!
“I’m aiming to hit the £250 minimum by the end of this month, then raise even more before March next year. If the Brighton drag scene does anything well it’s a good old fundraiser.
“I’ve got some ideas I’ll be working on for some fun events over the next six months to bring everyone together, put on a camp show and raise some money for a good cause.”
