Story

I am excited to share that I will be participating in the RunAcross the UK on March 20th, 2026, to support Down’s Syndrome Scotland. This incredible charity is the only one in Scotland dedicated solely to supporting individuals with Down’s syndrome and their families.

The RunAcrossUK Team will be running, walking and cycling from John o’Groats to Lands End. The 1,000 mile event will take place across the weekend 20-22 March 2026 in line with International Down Syndrome Day.

I will be running a leg from Kinross to Dunfermline - just over 10 miles my longest ever run!

Down’s Syndrome Scotland is a charity close to my heart, they have been an amazing resource for my family following the birth of my son Ben in 2021. We have accessed Speech and Language therapy through their ABC courses, attended online seminars, and have taken part in many events run by our local branch. This is only a small example of the services and support DSS provide across Scotland.

Every donation, no matter how small, makes a significant impact. Your support helps provide essential resources and services that empower those affected by Down’s syndrome to lead fulfilling lives. Together, we can advocate for their rights and ensure they receive the support they deserve.

I have set a target of £1750 to help further this vital work. Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast, and secure. Your details are safe with them—they will never sell your information or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, your gift goes directly to the charity, making it the most efficient way to contribute.

Join me in making a difference today! Let’s come together to support Down’s Syndrome Scotland and create a brighter future for those who need it most.

Support us today—because together, we can make a difference!
