Story

First of all, thank you for taking the time to visit my page. 

On the 5th of November I am taking part in the Leeds Abbey Dash, a 10k race. My super supportive colleague, Greg, has also volunteered to run the race for the same charity. The charity that I am raising money for is Elliot's footprint. This charity supports families through child bereavement. Anyone of you that know me well will know why I consider this charity to be close to my heart. 

In January of last year my family and I suddenly lost my younger brother, Sonny. Aged just 11 years old, Sonny was a son, a brother, a cousin, a grandson, a nephew, and a wonderful friend to every member of the family. Nothing can prepare you for the loss of someone so precious, but to hear of an organisation that does so much to help those unfortunate families that find themselves in a similar situation, means so very much.

I am currently working my ass off to get fit for this run and every single penny that I can raise will make the absolute world of difference. Thank you.
