I'm running the London Marathon...all 26.2miles of it!! I'm not a runner, so am starting from scratch, but am really excited to be taking on this challenge for Family Action!

They're an amazing charity, and over the last two years I've seen firsthand what life-changing work they do to support some of the UK's most vulnerable and isolated children and families. They help families tackle issues like mental ill health, domestic abuse, enduring poverty, disability and being a young carer.

They're there when everyone else has given up; they listen to problems, find solutions and give a lending hand to help a family get back on it's feet, meaning a better future for the children, and ending generational cycles of deprivation.

I really would be very grateful for any support you can give - every penny and pound will help me get through the miles of training, and cross the finish line on 21st April!

Thank you.xxx
