Myself and 3 of my siblings are running our 1st half marathon on 1st October 2017 in memory of our mum. She suddenly passed away on 27th April 1984, when the youngest of her 7 children was just 3 months old.

If it wasn't for our dad having such a large family, support for both him and his children would have probably been non-existent.

We wanted to find a charity that was personal to us, and The Jennifer Charity supports widowed father's and their children, helping them to grieve as a family and move forward together.
