<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: small;">Sparkles is a local charity that does such a brilliant job giving children with Down’s syndrome an early start with their communication skills.</span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: small;">I have been lucky enough to have witnessed this first hand, and was completely blown away by the results of the therapy and signing given by Sparkles.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>This massively improves a child’s life and gives them such a great start to their education.</span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: small;">When I ran my last(only other) marathon, I did not do this with sponsorship however as I have been fortunate enough to gain a place at The London Marathon thought that I would take this opportunity to support such a good local cause.</span></p>
