Story

I did it! I finished the Prague Marathon 2017. Amazing feeling! And the biggest heartfelt thank you to all of you lovely people who supported 500 Miles. With Giftaid we've sprinted past £2,000. So awesome! You will change quite a few lives. Thank you! Life is so good! There's still time to support the transformational work of 500 Miles a charity founded and led by an incredible friend of mine called Olivia Giles..A quadruple amputee herself, Olivia knows only too well the vital difference prosthetics and orthotics can make. Her projects in Malawi and Zambia transform the lives of individuals and their families. In a world where we often stand by helpless in arresting the horrors and injustices around us, here are small but precious and practical things that can be done and fixed, one person at a time at an average cost of just £175. Any and all help in helping making this change possible is very much appreciated. Thank you!
