Steps is the leading charity working for all those whose lives are affected by childhood lower limb conditions. Everything we do is about valuing and supporting individuals, families and carers affected by conditions which have an impact on the legs, hips or feet.

Story

I'm running the Great North Run to raise money for Steps Charity, who support children and families affected by childhood lower limb conditions.

Our son, Austen, was born with bilateral talipes (clubfoot), meaning both of his feet were turned inwards at birth. He's currently undergoing treatment to help correct his feet to make him able to walk.

Steps provide realistic, clear information for parents about what to expect, as well as wider support for families facing similar diagnoses.

Because of Austen, this cause is very close to our hearts, and I'm proud to be running 13.1 miles to raise money for Steps and the work they do.

Any donation, big or small, would be hugely appreciated. Thank you for your support.
