I’m running a marathon for the first time next month: the Brighton Marathon on 12th April. I’m in the depths of training at the moment, so I’m equally terrified and relieved that the day has nearly arrived!

I’m hoping to raise money for Friends of Woodlands, a charity supporting Woodlands Special School in South Devon. Donations go towards specialist equipment, transport, and their exciting current project: a school café run by the students themselves. My nephew attends the school, so I hear firsthand about the brilliant work they do there.

Every penny you can spare would be hugely appreciated, both by me and the school. Thank you so much for your support!
