Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page. As my photo shows I am not a natural or elegant runner but despite that I do want to raise money to say thank you the RFL Injured Players Foundation for all the help and support they offer. I am running/ walking/ jogging the 2017 London marathon so please sponsor me, even a fiver would help.

I'm running for RFL Injured Players Foundation because of all the support they have to a friend when her son broke his back whilst playing rugby. This is how they helped her family. 'The IPF helped us by just supporting us & the school. They offered to go into the school & arrange first aid training. The Welfare Officers have visited Will 3 or 4 times. They contacted the RFU Insurers for us. They supported us financially - helping with travel costs etc. The main thing is they were there for support. We were given contact numbers etc & knew we could get in touch whenever we needed to. The IPF also paid for Will's laptop for his school work.'
