In April 2019 my eldest son Josh was diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes. Josh was admitted to hospital and was very  poorly. This came as a real shock to me and my family and with no previous knowledge of Diabetes we turned to Diabetes UK as a Trusted source of information.

Josh has made us proud of how he has managed this life changing condition. Over 3 years on he isn't letting Diabetes  win which is why  I am running  26.2 miles in tribute to you and your condition.

On 31st of March my wife Angela was also diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes.  So when I missed out yet again in the London marathon Ballot their was only one charity  I would run London for.
