London Marathon 2019 · 28 April 2019 ·

Story

I have decided to take on the monumental physical and mental challenge that is running 26.2 miles through the streets of London in April. No, I've never run a marathon - I've never even run a half marathon - but if I can do this to raise money and awareness for one of the most giving, dedicated, and incredible charities I know, then I am up for the challenge. 

My family and friends have been involved in this charity for as long as I can remember. Mostly focused on helping people within the West Midlands, I've watched the utter determination and mental strength it has taken to continually raise desperately needed funds for some of our most at risk children. Every penny goes towards those in need, whether it be a child with a terminal illness whose dream is to swim with dolphins, a visit to Lapland for a child and their family who so desperately need to forget about the daily struggle of keeping them alive for just a day, or for therapy which will literally change someone's life. There are no administration costs, so everything you give goes directly to the beneficiary.

Many may never have heard of We Are All Making a Difference, but for those who have been helped by their generosity, their lives have been forever changed. I am lucky enough to have a body that works, and so I want to use it to help others while I can. I'm also lucky enough to have two healthy children, but for many others, there is a daily struggle which I can only imagine to keep their children alive and well. I want to do this so that I can help in whichever small way I can, and am asking for any small donation you can spare to help me raise my goal. 

I have no idea how I'm going to run this many miles, but I will! Knowing I can help change someone's life will keep those feet going, so please help me use this incredible opportunity to make a difference.  I'd also love a song recommendation with each donation so I can make a playlist that'll remind me who has helped me and what's at risk if I don't keep moving! 

Thank you for anything you can give. Watch this space for updates on how my training is going!
