Story

Good day to you all

We're running a self made Chelmsford run for SWAN a charity that have helped Trev and Sarah provide advice for Aurelia.

I originally planned to run a marathon for SWAN at the Liverpool marathon, but after cancellations I thought we can do it here, and have dragged some pals together to suffer parts of it with me and we'll run (slowly) through the beautiful sights of Chelmsford, whilst I'm hungry, hurting and probably crying. Granted Liverpool has Anfield and the Beatles, but we have Melbourne flats and Hedshrink.

Whilst I'm running a marathon, I've built a super team to run, a few glory hunters will run the last 10k and I've built an elite squad of Olympic athletes to run half marathons.

SWAN UK is the only dedicated support network available for families of children with undiagnosed genetic conditions in the UK. Aurelia was born blind, and has difficulty with her coordination and breathing. The NHS, SWAN and other charities have have helped Aurelia in her first couple of years and they need continued support.

Trevor and Sarah are amazing parents that demonstrate their patience, humour and love to Aurelia every single day. A donation will help other families towards giving their kids the same care Trev and Sarah give Aurelia.
