On the Sunday the 4th October 2026 I will be running the Manchester Half Marathon for the 5th time. I have decided to mark the occasion by raising money for a very worthy local Aberdeen based Charity Aberdeen Foyer.

I will also be hosting a charity fundraiser on Saturday the 12th of September in Aberdeen at the Caledonian Golf Club to help raise as much money as possible. There will be Rock and Roll Bingo, live music from Rhianne Sings - Weddings & Events Singer a raffle/buffet and a wee disco from JHM Disco & Karaoke to end the evening. Tickets for this will be on sale very soon.

Any donation regardless of the value will truly be appreciated by myself and the charity. I have volunteered for them before and was blown away by the service they offer.

Aberdeen Foyer is a charitable organisation supporting over 1900 people a year in North East Scotland towards independent living, learning and work.

We exist to create positive and lasting change working alongside people experiencing tough life challenges and the wider system to address and prevent the root causes of poverty and youth homelessness across local communities in Aberdeen and Aberdeenshire. We do this by delivering joined up services offering supported housing, learning, training, counselling, employment support and health impro
