Great union canal race · 29 May 2021

No parent expects to live longer than their child, but for many of the families we support, this is a reality. Julia's House, the Dorset & Wiltshire Children's Hospice charity provides frequent respite care for children and support for their families at home, in the community and at our hospice.

Story

I am taking on this challenge because I want to help families facing unimaginable heartbreak - the knowledge that their child may not live into adulthood. Julia’s House provides frequent, flexible care for children with life-limited or life-threatening conditions to give their parents a much-needed break.Amazingly, Julia’s House has to raise 95 per cent of the money it needs each year to run this vital service which is why I have chosen to support them. Your kind sponsorship will make a life-changing difference to these families.


I am going to run from Birmingham to Little Venice 145 miles non stop in just under 45 hours in May. Then just 8 weeks later I take on the Kennet and Avon canal then in August my final race is the Liverpool to Leeds Canal race. These will be hard and tough races but hopefully I can do it.
