Story

Hi everyone!

This year I'm running the London Marathon to raise money for the fantastic children's charity I CAN.

More than half the children in some parts of the UK start school with a communication difficulty and are likely to struggle with talking, understanding, learning and making friends.

I CAN are experts in helping children develop their speech, language and communication - skills that are vital for them to thrive in the world.

I CAN want a world where all children have the communication skills they need to be able to fulfil their potential. They ensure that no child with communication difficulties is left out or behind and they ensure these difficulties are identified, addressed and supported.

Any donation, however small will help towards my total, and more importantly will help children get the support they need so that they communicate with the world around them.

About the charity

At least 1.9 million children in the UK are struggling to talk and understand words.  We give children and young people the skills they need so they aren't left behind. We do this by creating tools for schools and nurseries, giving advice and guidance to families and putting pressure on politicians.
