Story
We will be running the Brighton Marathon, on the 10th April, to raise money for the Max Windle Memorial Trust (MWMT).
Max sadly passed away in January 2021, at the age of 16, after suffering with his mental health. The MWMT was set up in memory of Max and supports charities which focus on improving mental health, including depression, anxiety and suicide prevention, in children and young adults.
We knew Max and his family very well so this is a cause which is incredibly close to both our hearts. Neither of us are runners, and we have never done anything like this before, but we have committed to this challenge in memory of Max and with a strong desire to help others who are suffering as Max did.
Max was an incredible sportsman, with a recent acknowledgement in BBC Sports Personality 2021, so we are hoping to make him proud as we take on this tough challenge.
Any donations, no matter how small, would be enormously appreciated.
With love and thanks,
Alex & Emma xxx
