In May 2012 we sadly lost one of our closest friends, Oliver Marshall Clark, at just 19 years old. Ollie was a clever, funny and remarkable young man and with this page we hope to raise awareness and money for Muscular Dystrophy Campaign, as well as remember our friend.

Ollie was a special friend to us all; with a cheeky grin, a witty sense of humor and the unique ability to make us smile in any situation, he has left us with some truly fantastic memories. Loved by all those who knew him, even when he was up to mischief, not a day goes by where he is not greatly missed.

In July this year, we will host Oliver's Old Fashioned Ball - a charity ball that will raise money for Muscular Dystrophy Campaign and mark his 21st birthday (and honour his love for Old Fashioned drinks!).

In June, Khadiza will be doing the Great North 10K and in September, Emma and Khadiza will be running the Great North Run in Ollie’s memory also to fundraise (we have never done any sort of big run before) – big physical challenges that could not have a more worthy cause.

Thank you for taking the time to visit this page and read about why we're fundraising – any donations or sponsors will be very much appreciated.
