Story

Welcome to my fundraising page for the 2024 London Marathon! On April 21st, I'll be hitting the streets of London to tackle the incredible challenge, all in aid of the wonderful charity, Wishes 4 Kids.

Running has always been a passion of mine and the London Marathon has always been on the bucket list! However, this is about the opportunity to make a meaningful difference to the lives of children facing adversity.

Wishes 4 Kids has been created to grant a wish for children and youngsters in Leicestershire who are life limited, terminally ill, have experienced life-changing physical or emotional traumas and have suffered major abuse. The Charity grants wishes for those of eighteen years and below.

Sadly, we do not have a magical cure for the suffering of these children, however, we can bring a short period of respite. The moment when a child's wish is granted is one they will treasure for the rest of their lives.

Every step I take during this marathon will be entirely fuelled by the incredible stories of courage and resilience I've encountered through Wishes 4 Kids. All and any donations are massively appreciated. My aim is to raise £4,000.

Thank you,

Fred
