Story

Hello everyone!

Thank you so much for visiting my page! On 11th October, I am taking on a massive personal challenge: running a half marathon. Whilst I do enjoy the odd run, training for 13.1 miles is pushing me completely out of my comfort zone. But every painful mile and early morning run is for this amazing charity, Learn To Love To Read, a local charity that does great work for children.

Reading isn’t just a school subject, it is the foundation for everything. It sparks imagination, builds empathy, and opens doors to future opportunities. Sadly, many children fall behind early because they don't have access to books or one-on-one reading support at home. Once a child falls behind, it becomes harder and harder for them to catch up.

Just like learning to run a half marathon, learning to read takes time, patience, and the right encouragement. By supporting my run, you aren't just helping me cross the finish line, you are helping a child take their first steps toward a brighter, more confident future.

Thank you so much for your generosity, your encouragement, and for helping me make every mile count!
