Hello, My name is Faye and I am running for Maya.

Maya was only 2 years old when she was cruelly taken from this world at the hands of her mothers new partner of just 9 weeks and her mother turned a blind eye to the abuse.

Maya's two great Aunts Gemma and Rachael have started a campaign whereby they are asking for the following:

New Disclosure and Safeguarding Mechanism for At-Risk Children

We propose a statutory safeguarding framework that facilitates proactive information sharing where a child is at risk due to a parent or caregiver’s known history, even when current laws may not trigger disclosure.

More details

• Introduce a Child Risk Disclosure Scheme (CRDS) that operates similarly to Clare’s and Sarah’s Laws but is focused on the broader risk history of caregivers.

• Require statutory services (police, social care, health) to disclose relevant past history to the child’s parent or legal guardian when a risk is identified.

• Establish multi-agency response protocols, particularly where child contact, custody, or unsupervised access is being considered.

• Empower professionals to raise safeguarding alerts and initiate family court safeguarding interventions where known risks exist, even if not currently under active investigation.

Gemma is a good friend of mine and watching the campaign and the fight of the family has spurred me on to help out.

The campaign is costly with travel to meetings as this is a national campaign they attend other areas in the UK and travel to Westminster which is a much needed for the campaign to get it where it needs to be. Cost of materials and events that they put on to keep the campaign going can be costly to them.

Gemma and Rachael, like most of us work full time as well as keeping this campaign going so this is a much needed help to them as we all feel the pinch at times.

I have decided to help out by running the Sunderland 10K on May the 17th. I am not a runner so this is a massive challenge for me!

I have joined two running clubs called Her Run Club and Washington slow runners and fun runners to help me with my ability to run and make sure I get over that finish line to help the family out.

so please if you have something to give then please help out.

Thankyou!
