In memory of Ian Cottee, for ‘Brake’

I’m taking part in the Manchester half marathon on October 13th 2024, in memory of Ian Richard Cottee, otherwise known as my dad.

17 years ago on the 7th August 2007, we lost the most amazing dad, brother, son and friend due to a bike accident. He was only 42 and had so much more living to do; we all miss him every single moment of the day.

I'm raising money in aid of Brake which is a charity that helps not only the victims of road accidents, but also families and friends during their recovery and sadly, grief.

Thank you in advance for your contribution to this cause that means so much to me, my family and everyone out there who has ever been affected by a road traffic accident.
