Story

🏃‍♀️ Running the York Marathon for Chris 🏃‍♀️

Hiya! In October, my friend Barbara and I are running the York Marathon. We are raising money for a cause closest to me: my brother’s charity, the Chris Smith Memorial Fund.

This charity steps in to provide incredible opportunities for young athletes who otherwise wouldn’t have access to them. Since we tragically lost Chris six years ago, our fund has handed out £50,000 in grants to some truly deserving young people.

After experiencing such horrific trauma as a family, it is a privilege to see Chris's legacy live on and firsthand witness how it changes these young athletes' lives.

If you are able to donate, we would both really appreciate it . Thank you so much for your support!

Lots of love,

Maz and Barbara
