I have joined #TeamRedCross to ensure that they can help anyone, anywhere in the UK and around the world, get the support they need if crisis strikes.

Many of you may not know that I went on a big weight loss 'journey' (yuck) during lockdown where I lost 21k. I've always been the bigger girl since I could walk (not that that ever phased me). Running has never been something I've enjoyed nor have I been good at but this is my little way of helping those who may not be as lucky as myself. Every step I take in the marathon becomes a stride towards supporting their vital work, whether it's disaster relief, healthcare, or community resilience.

Any donations would be very much appreciated and my lovely colleagues at the Wimbledon Foundation will be providing some matched funding to push me over the finish line. :) xx 3>
