I am proud to be a Trustee of an incredible charity, Fitmums and Friends, and on 6th June 2026, I will be taking part in the Dove House/FitMums Pub to Pub 10 mile walk. This personal walk is not just a journey through some of my old student haunts in Hull but a heartfelt mission to support a cause that transforms lives.

Fitmums and Friends began as a running club but has blossomed into a beacon of hope for people of all abilities. Whether walking, running, nordic walking, cycling, or simply being active through coached sessions — we even sing together! Since the charity’s founder faced profound loss in 2020, it has expanded its compassionate reach to include grief support through Grief Walks, Yoga for Grief, and a special Forest Project for bereaved children. The charity also empowers those with visual impairments and supports women navigating menopause with tailored activity programs.

This vital work needs your help to continue making a difference. I am walking alongside three close friends who share this passion, starting at the University where it all began. Please join me in supporting Fitmums and Friends by donating towards our target of £200. Your generosity will help sustain these life-changing programs that bring strength, healing, and community to so many.

Together, we can keep moving forward — one step at a time.
