On 18th April I will be running the Brighton Marathon with my trusted sidekick, Clare Furnival.

There have been multiple discoveries along the way; I run like a girl; singalong to my ipod with such intensity that drivers slow when they see me; because of the calories burnt you really can eat whole packets of jaffa cakes; my arms are so chubby at the top that they actually rub against my sides leaving me with unsightly sore bits.  

It's going to be FUN!

More importantly though I am raising money for the Theo Walker Fund.

The fund was created in memory of Theo Walker who was born on 20th November 2009 and died four and half weeks later on 21st December 2009 from the congential heart condition, Pulmonary Atresia with intact ventricular septum. Theo's parents and my lovely friends, Dan & Luce, knew before Theo was born that he would require many complex operations, however following his birth it became clear that his condition was too complicated for the surgeons to be able to perform the procedures they had planned. Palliative care for what remained of Theo's life was all that was possible.

All the family received the most wonderful care and support from the nurses and doctors of the Paediatric Intensive Care Unit ('PICU') at The Royal Brompton Hospital for nearly two weeks, before they were unexpectedly able to take Theo home for the remainder of his short life.

The Theo Walker Fund aims to help families that still have 'their Theo' and rely on the truly inspirational and caring paediatric nurses and doctors of PICU at The Royal Brompton Hospital and The Chase Kids Hospice.

Chase Kids Hospice supports the life-limited young people who suffer from a wide variety of conditions that are sometimes genetic, sometimes sudden, and often progressively degenerative. CHASE offers specialist paediatric palliative care, including planned and emergency short breaks and holistic support, which helps strengthen families and allows the, to give their children the best time for living, however long that might be.
