On Saturday 5th September, I’ll be taking on the Snowdonia Sea2Sky Ultra Marathon, starting from Barmouth beach Eryri, hitting the Cadair Idris summit & back. 🏃‍♂️⛰️🌊

I’m taking it on to raise funds and awareness in support of unpaid family carers, the incredible people who dedicate so much of their lives to caring for loved ones.

And, for good measure, On Sunday 20th September 2026, I’ll also be running the Cheltenham Half Marathon in fancy dress!

This cause is very close to my heart. My niece has cerebral palsy, and I have seen first-hand how caring for a loved one can affect an entire family — especially the unpaid caregivers who give so much of themselves while receiving very little support in return. Burnout is common. Rest is rare. And yet, they keep going.

The Trust & associated charities provide emotional support, short breaks, community groups and wellbeing activities for unpaid family caregivers who urgently need space to breathe, recharge and feel valued.

Your donation will help fund:

• Mental health and support groups

• Respite and wellbeing activities

• One-to-one emotional support

• Awareness campaigns that help make caregiving visible and ensure caregivers are recognised and respected

Two tough challenges, one important cause. Every donation, share and bit of support will mean so much and help shine a light on the vital role unpaid family carers play every single day.

Thank you for helping me care for the caregivers
