Hi everyone,

As some of you may know, since January 2025, we have been racking up the kilometres on Strava. Less out of character for Phil, definitely out of character for Charlotte, you may have been left wondering why. Well, on 6 July 2025, we are running in the Victoria Falls Marathon to raise money for Play it Forward. Phil will be running the full marathon and Charlotte will be running the half marathon.

Phil was inspired to enter having been to Zambia when he was little (check out the photos) and had been looking for an opportunity to go back and make a positive impact. Charlotte was looking for a challenge, having never run more than 5 kilometres before January!

In July 2025, we will be flying out to Zambia to spend a week working with the charity before travelling to Zimbabwe to run the race!

Play It Forward is a fantastic charity who use the unique power of football to contribute to positive social change. They invest in education to make sure every child has a safe space to learn. Equally, by introducing girls to sport, they break down gender stereotypes. Through their work, they are creating an environment for every child to reach their full potential and thrive.

We appreciate any support and donations you can give. All of the proceeds go directly to Play It Forward to help with their amazing work.

Love,

Phil and Charlotte x
