Thanks for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page.

Whether you know us really, really well or we have met along the way, you will probably know that our beautiful son Gabriel was born with Cleft Lip & Palate. We will never know why, it is just one of those things that without any family history affects 1 in 700 pregnancies.

Whilst it is nothing life threatening, it is a birth defect that has it's complications and can affect lots of things- the most obvious being cosmetic but frequently hearing and speech development are affected too.

We have been really touched by the love and support from our family and friends and are so lucky to be in a position where we have access to the best surgeons in the world... and would like to do something in return; so we are running a 5k through a series of paint throwing stations to raise money for a Charity we hold dear. 

Operation Smile, fly volunteer surgeons to the Developing World to provide surgery to children that would otherwise grow up without corrective surgery, not only this, they provide training to local surgeons to provide a more sustainable solution.

Whatever you can afford will change lives :-)
