We ran 16.3km KM, thanks for your support
Finn & I have taken on the task of running 15KM for the John Badley Foundation on the 17th of March in Queen Elizabeth Country Park.
The foundation supports full bursaries for Finn’s school Bedales.
Our training runs have proven painful so we now know that a hilly trail run is really going to hurt, but we have our bib numbers and it’s for a good cause. Please support us both and the foundation if you can!

Through fully funded bursaries, the John Badley Foundation (JBF) transforms the lives of children who are able to join Bedales Prep and Bedales Senior from difficult school and home situations in the UK and abroad. With the generosity of the Bedales community, the charity has funded full bursary places for 29 children to date, giving them a chance to thrive in this unique educational environment. Donors often ask us how this experience impacts on a child’s life. We feel this is best answered by students who have left the school and moved on to higher education and careers. These individuals are now able to look back on their time at Bedales and share their stories with you here. Parents can apply directly to Bedales for a JBF bursary place for their child. We also work closely with Royal SpringBoard and Buttle UK, who identify children most likely to benefit from a Bedales boarding education. These charities believe, like us, that every child deserves the chance to thrive, regardless of their background. Royal SpringBoard can demonstrate evidence that bursary placements for disadvantaged and vulnerable young people lead to: improved academic performance; improvements to pupils’ emotional and social wellbeing; improved chances of securing places at university or competitive apprenticeships; a ripple effect of rising aspirations in home communities.
