Thank you for visiting my JustGiving page. I am taking part in the Mansfield 10k on 13 September 2026, a challenge close to my heart as I strive to achieve a personal best while supporting an incredible cause: Home-Start Mansfield.

Home-Start Mansfield is a vital local charity dedicated to supporting families with children under five, especially those facing challenges such as mental health struggles, isolation, and financial hardship. Their trained volunteers provide compassionate support directly in families' homes for as long as needed. Beyond this, they run four free playgroups across the district, including a new early SEND group designed specifically for neurodivergent children under five and their parents. This group offers a safe space for children to be themselves and invaluable guidance for parents navigating the often overwhelming journey of diagnosis and support.

I am passionate about SEND provision because I have seen firsthand how early intervention can transform lives. The funds raised through this appeal will help sustain and grow this essential SEND group, ensuring that more families receive the emotional support and practical help they desperately need.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast, and secure—your generosity will go directly to Home-Start Mansfield without delay or extra cost. Please join me in making a difference by contributing towards our target of £1,000. Every donation brings us closer to empowering families in our community and giving young children the best possible start in life.

Together, we can build a stronger future for Mansfield’s children and families. Thank you for your kindness and support.
