Story

<p>We can quite often take for granted our good health and the ability to do everyday tasks that for some people are more challenging or come with obstacles and prejudices. For children who have genetic disorders, life can be so complex from such an early age.</p> <p>I wanted to run the London Marathon in aid of a charity that helps children who are not as fortunate with their health. I hope my run can somehow honour their bravery and determination.</p> <p>'Jeans for Genes' is a fantastic charity that helps children with rare genetic disorders. The charity helps in various ways to give care and support to families but also contribute to research into the various conditions.</p> <p>I encourage you to watch the short videos below to see some of the incredible children that 'Jeans for Genes' helps:</p> <p>http://www.jeansforgenesday.com/disorders/childrensfilms</p> <p>Many thanks for all your kind donations.</p> <p>Simon</p>
