Story

Amazingly We have managed to bag a last minute place in this years London marathon! Neither of us have ever ran this far before and have just 6 weeks to train! 

We have chosen RNIB as the charity in honour of Hannah’s Grandma Tessa who due to a condition called “giant cell arteritis” suddenly went completely blind over night last year. This and many other similar charity’s provide equipment, help and support for those who are in need due to sight loss. 

We only have a short space of time to train and to raise as much money as I possible can so thank you for any donations and support to help me do this! 

Wish us luck, We are going to need it!!! 

Thanks for your support with my London Marathon challenge!Every day, 250 people in the UK start losing their sight. Too many still face isolation and depression, unable to achieve their potential in a world that blocks their way. RNIB wont stop until every last psychological and physical barrier has gone for good.With your help, RNIB can be there when people need them most, support independent living, create an inclusive society and prevent avoidable sight loss. Every pound you donate is helping create a future where sight loss is no longer a barrier.£20 could help someone feel more confident about living with sight loss, with personalised support from our expert Sight Loss Advice Service. £47 could help someone feel more positive about the future after losing their sight, through a one-to-one phone or online counselling session. £2,500 could make a new adult book available in our Talking Books library, enabling a person with sight loss to enjoy the latest best seller.
