Update 07/09/25 - My cousin Luke Whittingham will be running in the race and has kindly offered to complete the fund raiser so that Iris’ Cats In Need can receive the funds later this month, thanks Luke!

In September I’ll be running in the Potters Arf Marathon with the aim of raising some money for Iris’s Cats In Need—a charity based in Tunstall that houses and rehomes stray cats and kittens.

As many of you may know, our lovely 3-legged cat Dave was a stray that we rescued 13 years ago, so the work this charity does is very close to our hearts. They provide a vital lifeline for vulnerable animals, offering them safety and the chance to find the loving homes that they deserve.

If you’re able to contribute, no matter how small, your support would mean a lot—not only to me but to the many cats and kittens who rely on this charity’s care. And if you can't donate, just sharing this page would be a huge help too.

Thank you for taking the time to read this and for any support that you can give
