Story

Thank you for visiting my JustGiving page.

About me

I am the Estates and Maintenance Manager at YMCA Derbyshire. Working for the organisation has opened my eyes to the variety of roles it plays in supporting some of the most vulnerable in our society. The YMCA provides security to those most at risk, education to those outside of the mainstream and support to those with few they can depend on. 

The YMCA bases its philosophy along Christian beliefs, but it is a shelter to all races and religions. One of the YMCAs key values is to Inspire, this is where we come in.

I am currently on a mission. I have set myself the aim to raise as much money as I can for the YMCA before the end of 2018 by running 1,000,000 meters (that's the equivalent of 100 x 10kms). My runs are being tracked via gps and each months accumulated distance run will be posted on this page for you to keep track of my progress. I will be tackling several major running feats along the way including the London Marathon and the Lakeland 50 among others.

It is my hope that you will keep track of my progress and if you choose to help me raise money for the YMCA that would be greatly appreciated.
