I'm Running for Lakita – A Cause Close to Home and Heart

On the 18th of May, I’ll be lacing up for the AJ Bell Great Manchester 10K — not just for the PB I’ve been training hard for (though I’ll be giving it everything!) — but for something far more important.

I'm running in support of Lakita, a charity deeply rooted in my heritage and heart. Born in Dareda, Tanzania, with family still based there, I’ve seen first-hand the importance of community, opportunity, and hope. Lakita is doing vital work to empower children and families through education and health support — and I want to give back to the place that shaped so much of who I am.

Whether it’s £2 or £20, every donation helps make a real impact. If you can support, I’d be incredibly grateful — and if not, a share or some encouragement means the world too.

Let’s do this together — for Dareda, for Lakita, and for a better future ❤️
