Kelly’s Trust was set up to help sick children living in Kent and East Sussex. Assistance is given for respite care, travelling expenses to and from hospital and other special needs. The charity works closely with the Demelza House Children’s Hospice and Ellenor Children’s Hospice Care.

Story

Thank you for visiting my page. I am honoured to be running for Kellys Trust again this year. Its a chance to support my friend Scott, in remembering his sister Kelly, who died of leukaemia aged 18, and to help local Kent and Sussex families as they deal with similar, incredibly difficult, events in their lives. 

As a small local charity (http://kellystrust.org) all money raised goes directly to families which need support. 

Having had surgery for cancer myself in 2015, the marathon was something I had previously only dreamt of doing. In 2016 Kellys Trust gave me my first opportunity to run for the charity. It gave me a goal and I'm so grateful to be able to run again (and still be running).

I appreciate I am one of the lucky ones. If you can, please donate to this worthwhile charity. Mark
