I'm running the Royal Parks Half Marathon this October to raise funds to help Starlight make play a priority!

Starlight is the UK’s leading charity working to put play at the heart of every child’s healthcare. From vaccinations to surgeries, play takes the scare out of children’s healthcare. It is a powerful healing tool making children more resilient and receptive to treatment.

• We make play possible by providing play resources.

• We make play matter by campaigning to embed it into health services.

• We make play better by building best practice and sharing knowledge with frontline paediatric professionals.

The problem is fear. The answer is play. It’s time to put play into practice.
