Brighton Marathon 2017 · 9 April 2017 ·

Brighton & Hove Speak Out provides advocacy for adults with learning disabilities. We run a range of projects which support people to express their views and have control over their lives, understand and claim their rights, access the services they need and participate in their communities.

Story

At last after 40 years of occasional jogging I feel the time is right to really challenge myself by running the Brighton marathon. The marathon offers a final opportunity to raise a bit of money for a great cause before my knees give out. 

I have decided to raise money for Speak Out, an independent charity that supports people with a learning disability. Much of the focus of Speak Out is to prevent people going into crisis with issues such as housing, relationships, finance and social isolation. 
I feel very privileged to run the marathon on behalf of this cause. If you decide to support me you can be sure that your donation will make a real difference to the lives of this socially vulnerable group.
