The Stonyhurst Foundation Unicorn Challenge - Manchester Half Marathon 2024

I'll be leading a team of 25 pupils, staff, and OS in the iconic half-marathon distance at the Manchester Half Marathon on 13th October 2024 and raising vital funds for The Stonyhurst Foundation along the way.

You may recall that Rory Mellows and I challenged each other to raise some money for the Stonyhurst Foundation at the Manchester Marathon in April, the loser of which would have to run the Manchester Half Marathon dressed as a unicorn! The results are in, and...it was a draw! Both of us will be donning our fancy dress around Manchester on 13th October.

Make my public humiliation worthwhile by donating a few pennies towards this amazing cause. More than ever before, we need your support to allow children the life-affirming opportunities afforded by a Stonyhurst education.

This year, The Stonyhurst Foundation is an Official Associate Charity of the Manchester Half Marathon 2024

Why The Stonyhurst Foundation?

The Stonyhurst Foundation's sole charitable aim is to remove the financial barriers to a Stonyhurst education for children who otherwise would not be able to benefit from it. It aims to be the largest ring-fenced independent bursary and fee assistance charity of its kind in Catholic independent education in the UK. https://www.stonyhurstfoundation.org/
