Story
We needed a new page as the old one was so popular it wore out (well maybe it timed out but still). So far £1466 has been raised and. there's still two challenges to go!
I’m still supporting CONQR and Archie’s Caravan. What they do is just amazing and I want to do something that helps them.
So who are the charities?
CONQR brings together Men In Need Together (MINT), Veterans In Need Together (VINT), and Women Inspiring Strength and Hope (WISH). They provide vital mental health support, helping people when they need it most. I’ve experienced their impact firsthand and was honoured to be asked to become a trustee for 2025.
Archie’s Caravan was founded by Archie’s parents after his passing in 2021. They turned their grief into a lifeline for others by offering respite holidays to families going through tough times — a chance to rest, recover, and make unforgettable memories together.
2025 is the year this fat fella gets running! I’m taking on a series of endurance challenges that will push me far beyond my comfort zone:
- January: Sean Conway’s 496 Challenge — running 496km in a month. SUCCESSFULLY COMPLETED
- June: A 70+ mile ultra-marathon. Carlisle to Newcastle following Hadrians Wall!
- July: A 100+ mile ultra-marathon. Bamburg Castle to Edinburgh Castle.
I’m not an experienced runner or endurance athlete, but I’m determined to do my part. The challenges ahead will be nothing compared to what the families and individuals these charities support go through every day.
Even if you can’t donate, please like, share, and comment to help spread the word. Every bit of support makes a difference.
Let’s do something incredible — together.
