After completing the London Marathon in 2024 I said I’d never do another marathon unless it was London! Well this year the ballot gods were on my side so here we go again!

As in 2024 I’ve decided to add fundraising for Rainbows Childrens Hospice for motivation. This time there’s the previous target to beat of £1100! 🙈

I have the honour of working with some of the families that access Rainbows for respite and support so see first hand the wonderful work they do.

As a charity, Rainbows is almost entirely dependent on people like you to provide the funds that keep their services going.

Rainbows cares for hundreds of families every year who have a baby, child or young person with a serious or terminal illness that means that their lives will be shorter than most.

By donating you will be helping to support babies, children, young people and their families living with life-threatening and life-limiting conditions, in the East Midlands.

Rainbows provide specialist care and emotional support for babies, children and young people with serious or terminal conditions and their loved ones, so they can enjoy their time together as a family, for as long as they have.

For more information please visit www.rainbows.co.uk to see more about how your support helps families through the toughest times and how you will be helping make precious memories.

Please ensure every child, young person and family can depend on Rainbows when they need them the most.
