Story

Thank you so much for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page. This year I have taken on the mammoth challenge of running The London Marathon to fulfill a huge personal ambition and in aid of a truly fantastic cause:

 

70,000 disabled children and young people don’t have a wheelchair appropriate to their needs. That’s where Whizz-Kidz comes in. By providing them with vital mobility equipment they help to transform their lives. And with training to help them get the most out of their equipment, support to develop life skills, and opportunities to meet and have fun, they help them to be something special…a kid. If you would like to find out more about the charity and the fantastic work they do then please visit their website http://www.whizz-kidz.org.uk/why-we-need-your-help/

 

Thanks a million for helping me to achieve a huge personal goal and for giving disabled children the chance to lead more happy and fulfilled lives. Your support means so much to me and all the kids that you are helping.

 

If you would like to see the streets of London put me through my paces I would love to see you on race day (17th April)

 

Thanks again!
