Story
Nic & Jane the mighty atoms are running the Cornish Marathon for the iSight Cornwall charity on 5th November 2023.This running duo aim to support each other through this arduous course in the beautiful moorlands of North Cornwall.
Nic had major surgery to remove a benign tumour from her pituitary gland May 2022, which has left her severely visually impaired. With the help of family, friends and iSight Cornwall she has slowly regained her confidence to take up her running that she used to enjoy so much.
Jane a veteran runner of the one hundred marathon club with well over 300 marathons under her belt regularly runs with Nic. Together with their figure of eight dog rope they have built up an understanding and trust with each other and have set their aim to run the Cornish Marathon and fundraise for iSight Cornwall.
iSight Cornwall is the first centre of resource for all in Cornwall and the Isles of Scilly who are affected by sight loss, whatever their age, circumstance or condition.
We care passionately about helping anyone living with a visual impairment and have done ever since our foundation in 1856 when the charity supported Cornish miners. We are ready and willing to afford them support and encouragement to lead active, independent, and involved lives, at home, in the workplace, in their education, and by no means least, in their social lives.
