Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

Our son attends Heltwate School, a specialist setting providing high-quality education and support for children and young people with complex needs. The school creates a nurturing, inclusive environment where pupils are supported to develop their communication, independence and overall wellbeing.

We think the school and its staff are incredible, and we are always looking for ways to show our appreciation and give something back. This year, we have worked with class teachers across all three sites to create wish lists of equipment that will support pupils with regulation, engagement and learning in the classroom. Funds raised will go directly towards purchasing these items and enhancing the learning environment for all pupils.

This June, I am taking on the challenge of running 300 miles in 30 days — completing 10 miles every day. Some runs will take place on the streets, and others will be completed at school events so the wider Heltwate community can get involved.

I have also booked two sessions at the athletics track on 12th and 30th June (times will be confirmed via updates). Parents, carers and supporters are warmly encouraged to join the fundraising effort, gain sponsorship, and take part in their own personal challenges on these days. It would be fantastic to come together, support Heltwate, and celebrate these achievements as a community.

All runs will be tracked on Strava and shared with regular updates throughout the month.
