On 1st October my (much) younger brother Nick and I will be running the Clarendon cross-country marathon in support of Wharf Kids.

Despite some creaking bones and joints, we are keen to support the continued success of this wonderful charity that is doing such obvious good for the children in Magazine Wharf in Sierra Leone.

Founded by my friend Charlie Herbert, Wharf Kids gives severely disadvantaged young Ebola survivors a genuine sense of hope; something that we all need.
