Story
At the beginning of April I sadly lost the most amazing and loving man in my life, my Dad.
Right now I’m heartbroken and day to day stuff seems impossible never mind getting back to running, but in celebration of his life I’d like to do something to support a place close to his heart.
His love of nature, and wildlife drew him to Monkey World in Dorset and he supported the work that they did at their ape rescue centre and monkey sanctuary, developing primate welfare and conservation around the world.
My parents enjoyed visits here and have many happy memories.
I will be running the Edinburgh Half Marathon to support fundraising to reach this target and any sponsorship would be greatly appriciated.
