There are so many charities and good causes out there, that supporting one over the others is a difficult choice but the differentiation for me is when a cause touches my or a friend's life and so this time around I have chosen to run for Sense. Sense have provided enormous support to my friend and his family over many years and hopefully with my support they will continue to do so for many more.

A little on Sense. Sense is a charity that believes that no one, no matter how complex their disabilities, should be isolated, left out, or unable to fulfil their potential.

Their experts offer personalised support through their centres, holidays and short breaks, or in people’s own homes. They are here for everyone who needs them, for as long as they need them – providing early intervention for children, helping young people access education, and supporting the transition into adulthood and beyond.
