Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
I am fundraising for Headlines Craniofacial Support, a UK charity that has been a lifeline for families facing the challenges of craniosynostosis and related conditions.
My best friend, Teddy, was diagnosed with a rare craniofacial condition. Since then, he has gone through more surgeries and challenges than most people face in a lifetime — yet somehow, he continues to face everything with courage, strength, and a smile.
Teddy isn’t just my friend — he’s like a brother to me. We have been best friends for 9 and a half years. We were born just four days apart, and we’ve celebrated every single birthday together. Every memory, every laugh, every moment — we’ve shared it all.
Seeing what Teddy has been through, and how much Headlines has supported him and his family, made me want to do something that truly pushes me.
Last year, I ran a marathon in 14 days raising over £2,000! This year, I’m going even further. I’m taking on an Ironman-style challenge: swimming 1k, cycling 20k, and running 10k — not just for the challenge, but for Teddy, and for every child and family going through something similar.
Headlines gives families more than support — they give them hope. They create moments where children can just be children, and where families can feel understood, supported, and never alone.
I want to help make sure they can keep doing that.
If you’re able to donate, no matter how small, it would mean so much. You’re not just giving money — you’re helping families like Teddy’s feel stronger, supported, and hopeful for the future.
Thank you for taking the time to read this, and thank you for your support.
Love Stanley 💙
