To mark my 50th year, I've decided to take on a challenge I've always fancied doing but always thought was beyond me - never having run more than 10K!

Frances and Darcy have every confidence I can do it - ('Dad, I hope there are plenty of defibrillators along the route!' - to quote Darce)

As a Director with Family Fund, I know first hand the positive impact being achieved by the charity. Family Fund believes that all families raising disabled and seriously ill children should have the same opportunities as others. Our grants exist to remove some of the barriers these families face, to improve their quality of life and increase inclusion. Families tell us every day the difference we make, but we need your support so we can continue to make a difference to families throughout the UK.

Many thanks if you decide to sponsor me - all contributions are welcome!
