In just over a week Fred and I will be running the London marathon in aid of great causes. All donations hugely appreciated and will be split between both charities!

Fred - Samaritans

Samaritans provide a vital service — offering a listening ear, day or night, to anyone struggling to cope. In moments when someone feels alone, overwhelmed or without options, having someone there to simply listen can make all the difference. Their work is constant, compassionate and often unseen — but incredibly powerful.

Izzy - Caudwell Youth

Not all young people have the same opportunities in life. Caudwell Youth exists to change that. They work with young people aged 11–24 who are facing significant challenges, including those at risk of offending, leaving care, or struggling with mental health. Their mission is to help them find stability, purpose, and hope for the future.
