Story

Greg and James are running the London Marathon in order to raise money for Link Leisure in Woking, Surrey. Link Leisure support people with a learning disability to build an enhanced quality of life through sport and social activities in the community. 

James is a seasoned marathon runner and was heard after last years London Marathon uttering the words 'If you see me training for another marathon just shoot me'. This will be Greg's first marathon and he's had to put his usual hobbies of eating and drinking too much firmly on hold in order to train.

Link Leisure's Vision: We aim to empower members of all ages and abilities to make choices, develop independence and achieve their full potential. 

Link Leisure's activities include swimming, sports, youth clubs, after school clubs, drama, computer club, adult social groups, choir, holiday schemes, nightclub, gymnastics.

Both Greg and James have worked for Link Leisure in the past and have seen the amazing work that they have done over the years making an incredible positive difference to people's lives.
