Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page.

Many of you will know that we set up Challenge4Ben in memory of our son Benjamin Poole, who tragically died aged 26 whilst undertaking a military course in the Breckon Beacons to become a badged member of the Special Forces. Last year we undertook a number of challenges to raise money for charity and and this year our main 'family' challenge is to run in the London Marathon. This is a family event with Josh, Jonny, Nick and I all taking part. At our age this is gruelling challenge!!! Gym torture sessions have been going on since Janary, we are pounding the roads and clocking up miles and we are getting closer to 'peak' fitness!!!

We are supporting and raising money for Leonard Cheshire Disability, which helps over 21,000 people a year and provides services to help disabled people to have an improved standard of life whether that be in their own home or assisted living in a Leoneard Cheshire home.

We would like to raise £1,600.00 each and we would be so grateful for your support.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. Thank you for your support.
