3 amazing charities! They all need you!

Let’s do this! On July 11th 2025, I’ll turn 40. To mark this milestone, I want to do something positive with this year and so I’ve set myself the task of not only running a three separate half marathons, but on June 29th, completing the Wales Marathon! Early this year I managed a 5k park run and took me over a week to recover. A marathon is going to be one hell of a challenge for me. My aim is to raise £10,000 and split this across three charities! So why three charities? Since my son was born, he has received the most amazing treatment from Great Ormond Street Hospital and the work they do for children is quite simply out of this world. The second is in honour of our friend Ed Knight who sadly passed earlier this year after two strokes. In his name, I will donate to the stroke association to help combat the UK’s 4th biggest killer. Finally, the 3rd charity will be Macmillan Cancer Support. This charity supported my mum through her cancer but more recently, it is to acknowledge the amazing support they are giving to my friends Simon and his wife Cathy, as he continues to fight cancer! £10,000 is a big number and so I’m asking for everyone’s help to see if we can raise as much money as possible to support three charities that make a huge difference in people’s lives! Please reach out to businesses as well who would be willing to support and make a difference!
