Story
Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
In 2014 my business, Leading Edge Signage and Graphics engaged with McDonalds, installing wall graphics in restaurants throughout the UK.
Through this connection I was introduced to the amazing charity Ronald McDonald House Charities.

When parent(s) receive the unfortunate news their child is seriously ill, it instantly turns their lives in a state of chaos, sadness, logistical and financial challenges.
RMHC has a network of facilities which provide families with a comfortable play to stay, adjacent to the hospital in which their child is being cared for. I have seen first hand the time and energy this gives the family in their hour of need.
The Houses help over 8,000 families each year, however their facilities are constantly oversubscribed and they also need funding to assist with new developments in areas of the country where they do not already have a presence.
It took me time to learn and understand the charity, subsequently it is one I have become very passionate about supporting having met and listened to families whom have experienced its benefits, in the most harrowing circumstances.
It is an honour to have been given the opportunity to raise funds through a powerful medium as the London Marathon, an honour I take very seriously and intend to maximise. In other words, dig deep!
I have already started training through a HIIT class 3 mornings a week to build up my strength and have an 18 week running programme scheduled from Christmas Eve, 6 days a week.
I will be happy to get round the course and enjoy the day but I have set an initial target of 4 hours 30 minutes.
Thank you in advance of your support. It is appreciated.
