In less than a week, I will be running the adidas Manchester Marathon 2025. As I approach my 40th year I felt inspired to take on this challenge and raise funds for a charity that we work closely with to support their amazing work.

CHUF's mission is to make life better for children and young people who are born with or who develop heart conditions. They provide lifelong support to these brave children and their families, ensuring they receive the care they need during their treatment at the Children’s Heart Unit at Freeman Hospital and other hospitals across the North of England.

I am grateful for the incredible work CHUF does, but they need our help to continue their vital services. My goal is to raise £500 to support their mission. Every contribution, no matter how small, can make a significant difference in the lives of these children and their families.

I invite you to join me in this journey by supporting my fundraising efforts for CHUF. Together, we can help create a brighter future for those who need it most.
