Fundraising for The Ducks & Drakes Cancer Trust

Story

On the 6th I will be taking part in my first ever Marathon... Following this I will be completing a Marathon a week for the rest of June.

I am doing this to raise money for the incredible charity Ducks & Drakes Cancer Trust. Please donate as much as you can spare or join me in fundraising by taking part in sections, some or all of these marathons with me and ask your family to donate and support you.

I will be recording my journey from training to events and recovery through Facebook, Instagram and Strava.

Please follow, donate, join me or even just share.
