Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

Three young men from the depths of the South Coast are embarking on an epic test of endurance, lung capacity and bowel control, to make it to the finish line of the 2015 London Marathon.

Overcoming adversity, such as knee operations and nicotine addictions, we now begin our gruelling sofa-based training programme which many say rivals that of the most elite runners..

We’re raising money for Make-A-Wish Foundation. An amazing cause who grant magical wishes to children fighting life-threatening conditions. 

This charity is close to our hearts as it has helped and supported Danny’s family through tough times. Paige Cowtan was diagnosed with a Brain Tumor at the age of 10. After Paige’s operation Make-A-Wish flew her and the Cowtan family out to Portugal to give her an experience she will never forget…..the chance to swim with a Family of Dolphins. This was the lift Paige needed to continue to beat this horrendous illness and, although it claimed her sight, she is now 24 and living her life to the fullest! 

This amazing charity is able to grant magical wishes to children and young people, wishes that have the power to transform the lives of the children and the lives of their families.They can also provide time away from hospital treatment and give desperately ill children something to look forward to. For families, they're a chance to create precious memories together – whatever the future may hold.
