From Ben and Dave:

In 2026 we both turn 40!

To mark the milestone, we’ve set ourselves a challenge as big as the celebration: running 26.2 miles in the London Marathon.

Ten years ago, we co-founded Little Rascals Foundation after seeing first-hand the urgent need for better local SEN (Special Educational Needs) support. Since then, we’ve been humbled by the difference Little Rascals has made — but we also know there is still so much more we can do!

By taking on this marathon, we want to raise vital funds to:

✨ Expand our services and reach more families

🏰 Create opportunities for more SEN children through play, learning, and support.

🚐 Keep our free sensory van visits running for children who need them most.

💛 Strengthen our impact in the community for years to come.

Every mile we run — and every pound you give — will help transform lives. Your support means we won’t just cross the finish line on marathon day…but also we’ll help hundreds more children and families cross their own hurdles too.

Thank you for believing in us, in this challenge, and in the children we support!
