We are running the Paris Marathon 2026!
After a successful 100km over the month of January, we decided to set ourselves a new challenge - The Paris Marathon on the 12th April!! We are both so excited but also a little bit nervous (understandably...)
Just under 3 months to train, eek!! We got this tho!
In Jan 2025, Sam's Dad, Jon, passed away as a result of an alcohol dependency. This was a huge loss for him and his family. As one of Sam's close friends, watching him go through that, I felt so awful for him. If we can do our bit to help support other families going through this, that would be amazing!!
About Alcohol Change UK:
‘We work for a society that is free from the harm caused by alcohol.
We are not anti-alcohol; we are for alcohol change. We are for a future in which people drink as a conscious choice, not a default; where the issues which lead to alcohol problems like poverty, mental health issues, homelessness are addressed; where those of us who drink too much, and our loved ones, have access to high-quality support whenever we need it, without shame or stigma.
How your donations can help:
* A donation of £20 could support around 20 people reduce their drinking through the Dry January® Challenge.
* £30 could help us develop and deliver more training for front line workers and improve support for dependent drinkers.
* £40 could cover the costs of supporting 16 people for six months to reduce their drinking through our Try Dry® app.’
Any donations would be hugely appreciated. Bring on Paris!!
