Thanks for taking the time to read more about the cause we are supporting...

We’re running 10k on Sunday 17 May and raising money for The Maria Watt Birmingham Foundation for Childhood & Teenage Leukaemia - it is a cause that is close to our hearts.

Deece is following in her father's foot steps, he completed the Flora London Marathon last year and inspired her to run for charity. Two years ago she could not run longer then five minutes. She said:

“Within the last six months I have challenged myself and achieved goals for this wonderful cause. Just one more (10k) to go!”

Lucy said: “Not sure I will run 10k in under an hour but will try! Please sponsor us to get round as quick as possible for a darn tooting charity, possibly in fancy dress – only the photos will tell. Why not come along and take some?!”
