Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I spent 11 months in Birmingham Childrens hospital in 2011 after I fractured my spine in an accident and im finally nearing an end of muscle rehab. When I came out of hospital I was walking but could not run even very short distances. I aimed to run 400m by the start of January 2013. Sadly I missed that target but I succeed with 360m just last month. I walked a fun run in summer 2011 (3 miles that took me roughly 3 hours) I will be taking part in a 5km fun run after easter, and I am hoping to run at least part of it... but I'll definitely finish faster than last time :) 

Birmingham Childrens was a real help to me and I have seen a lot of where this money will go to. The hospital treats some of the sickest kids in the country - Some of these kids are stuck in hospital for ages, and some are in and out regularly. The money I raise goes to supporting the children and their families, trying to help them feel comfortable when they need it most.

Thanks for your support and encouragement.

About the charity

It's bewildering and unsettling for anyone going into hospital but especially for children and that is why we are a fundraising hospital.
