Myself and dear friend Will Bargh are taking on the Robin Hood Nottingham Half Marathon together for Nottingham based Charity - When You Wish Upon a Star.

Our Wish children face daily challenges and invasive treatment plans. Family time is often stripped away & during this time; playgrounds become hospitals and time with friends & family become appointments.

Our magical work aims to provide special moments of respite through positive and meaningful connection with loved ones. Whilst we are unable to cure the illnesses our Wish children and families endure, our work allows for a time of safe, inclusive child friendly fun as we unite families & give all a different focus.

Some children Wish to be a fairy princess or soldier for the day, meet celebrities or sporting heroes that range from the Red Arrows to Mary Berry and others Wish for a laptop to keep in contact with their friends and family whilst in hospital.

A Wish has the power to reignite the magic of childhood, and allow families to do what families do, be in the moment, smile, laugh and make precious Wish memories!

Our work is powerful, Team Wish at this years Robin Hood Half Marathon will help to change lives, have an everlasting impact and create a powerful legacy of Wishes and precious memories for our families that will last a lifetime.
