I’m running the London Marathon for Caudwell Youth 🏃‍♀️

I’ve never run a marathon before. In the last 2 years I’ve had both hips replaced and extensive surgery on my feet. For some an amazing cause, it’s worth the effort and pain. My goal is to complete the marathon. whatever time I do will be a personal best.💙

Caudwell Youth supports young people facing some of life’s toughest challenges — from growing up in care to overcoming trauma. They provide mentors, safe spaces, and the support needed to build a brighter future.

Not all young people have the same opportunities in life. Caudwell Youth exists to change that. They work with young people aged 11–24 who are facing significant challenges, including those at risk of offending, leaving care, or struggling with mental health. Their mission is to help them find stability, purpose, and hope for the future.

26.2 miles will push me to my limits, but every step is for them. Every donation, big or small, helps give young people hope, guidance, and opportunities they deserve.

Please donate and be part of this journey — together we can change lives! 🧡💙
