Poppy’s 50KM Ultra for Improving Lives – Plymouth Fundraiser
On 28th February, I will be taking on a huge personal challenge — running 50 kilometres (31 miles) from Ramehead to Fowey in support of Improving Lives Plymouth.
This isn’t just about running. It’s about making a real difference in our local community.
Improving Lives Plymouth supports people across Plymouth who are living with long-term health conditions, disabilities, mental health challenges, and those who are socially isolated. They provide vital services that help people regain independence, improve wellbeing, and feel connected within their community.
A 50KM ultra marathon is both physically and mentally demanding. There will be tough miles, sore legs, and moments where quitting would be easier — but knowing that every step is helping raise funds for such an important cause will keep me going.
Why This Matters
The money raised will go directly towards:
Supporting vulnerable adults in Plymouth
Providing wellbeing and activity programmes
Helping individuals improve physical and mental health
Reducing isolation and building stronger community connections
Every donation, no matter the size, will make a difference.
If you’re able to support me, I would be incredibly grateful. And if you can’t donate, sharing this fundraiser means just as much.
Let’s turn 50 kilometres into something bigger than a run — let’s turn it into real change.
Thank you so much for your support 💛
