Story

Sadly, I am unable to run this year. I am very grateful to the charity to allow me to move my spot to next years event. Thank you to everyone who has voted and I will be able to carry it all over .

The middle of last year i entered the ballot for the London Marathon. This is an event i have always wanted to do. I was luckily enough to be given a place by the excellent Childrens Society. A little bit about them is at the bottom of this page.

Working with so many children within my job and previous jobs i felt that it was important to give something back to children that are not so fortunate with the ones i work with currently or have in the past.

This is with no doubt going to be my hardest challenge i have ever done and any support through donation to reach the target of £2000 will be hugely appreciated. Not just by myself but the charity as well. If we can get past £2000 that would be fantastic.

We are a national charity, working with young people to counsel and support them through their most serious life challenges. We campaign tirelessly for the big social changes that will improve the lives of those who need hope most. We've been doing this for 140 years and we won't stop until we've built a society where hope is alive in every child.
