London Marathon 2021 · 3 October 2021 ·

We’re the only charity fighting to end child abuse in the UK and Channel Islands. That’s why we help children who’ve been abused to rebuild their lives, we protect children at risk, and we find the best ways of preventing child abuse from ever happening.

Story

When I signed up for the London Marathon, I knew it was going to be a big challenge, but I didn't know the half of it... 

That pesky pandemic! 

With the original 2020 marathon rescheduled to last October and taking place virtually, this year I'm looking forward to finally running the iconic route FOR REAL. 

So my marathon 2020 journey will end with me having run not one but two marathons. And rescheduling means I've effectively tripled the amount of time I've spent slogging it out training. 

If that in itself isn't worth a cheeky donation to my page, then here's a reminder that the money will of course make a massive difference to children's lives. 

I've been working at the NSPCC for 8 years now and there's a reason for that. It's the same reason that's kept me going on the worst of the long runs: children need the NSPCC and the NSPCC needs funds. 

I'm so close to my target and would love to smash it. Any donation, big or small, would give me such a massive boost. I can't quite believe I've got this far and the end is so nearly in sight for this nervous asthmatic with dodgy knees.

Thank you,

Sophie
