Story

To my dear family & friends I am reaching out to you all, I have probably taken on the biggest challenge of my life to date, I've decided to run in the London Marathon 2018.

I am running for a number of reasons to get fit, make myself feel better & happier which is so important in our busy, crazy lives we all lead, but most of all I'm running for Children! Seriously ill children, the charity is called WellChild and my goodness the things they do to help these ill children and their families are truly amazing,  I felt I had to do something big to help raise some money.

I know with the help of my amazing family and friends we will do some fantastic fundraising events throughout the year which I'm very much looking forward to.

WellChild nurses provide specialist care and practical support to seriously ill children, young people and their families. They play a crucial role in enabling children to leave hospital and be cared for at home, reducing the practical, emotional and financial impact for families. WellChild have funded 32 WellChild nurse posts across the UK.

Over 100,000 children and young people are living with serious illness or exceptional health needs across the UK. Many spend months, even years in hospital because there is no support enabling them to leave. WellChilds vision is for these children and young people to have the best chance to thrive - at home, with their families.

So please can you help me reach my target or perhaps even smash it, doesn't matter how small the donation is it will still help.

Thank you so much for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page, it means a great deal.

Big love
