Please help me to raise funds to support the work of Kidney Research UK.

Barely 6 weeks after my son Archie was born, my friends Steve and Becky welcomed their little boy Sidney to the world, and for quite some time the two little guys did their best to out-do each other as to which had it hardest, with health issues related to prematurity, heart problems (Archie) and kidney problems (Sid).

Whilst Archie was able to have an operation after 6 months to solve his heart issues, Sid's journey has sadly continued to require significant support and a Herculean effort from his family as they work towards the day when he can receive a kidney transplant.

To say this has been tough on them all would be a massive understatement, and I want to try and help raise money to support them and others facing the same challenges.

On Sunday 23rd March I will be doing my utmost to drag myself around the Hampton Court Palace Half Marathon course, and would massively appreciate any donation you can give to support my efforts, and more importantly, the work of Kidney Research UK. Please help me to fund their work, to prevent future families from having to go through what my friends and their lovely little son are currently having to deal with.

Please, please give generously, and I'll do everything I can to get to the finish line!
