BentrendGetinvolved was formed following Ben’s death, the idea being to provide funding each year to support individuals and/or organisations involved in sport in the Blackpool and Fylde area where Ben grew up, and also in the South West of London, where Ben lived for the last eight years of his life.

This will be my first half marathon and I will certainly be testing myself with the hills of Coniston. I never knew Ben but have known his brother Jev for many years now and have seen the amazing work he and his family have put into the foundation!
