On the 2nd of October 2022, I will be running the London Marathon to raise money for UK charity Orchard Vale Trust.Orchard Vale Trust support adults with learning disabilities to live life to the full. Providing person-centred care that help's individuals to develop and achieve their own goals.They began after identifying a lack of opportunities available for learning disabled adults after leaving secondary school. OVT began to bridge this gap by providing lifelong homes to these people, homes where they are assisted in pursuing hobbies, developing skills and integrating with their communities.They have evolved to offer a range of community and day services, including employability schemes. Their work helps to demonstrate the incredible things learning disabled adults can achieve when given equal opportunities.£5 could buy art supplies for creative therapy workshops£10 could pay for a skills session like cycling support£20 or more could help fund holidays or experiences

For those of you who know me well, running does not come easily to me and therefore this is a massive challenge. I would be grateful for any support to reach my goal.
