Story
My ambition to run the London Marathon will be achieved supporting a fantastic charity SCOPE on April 27th 2025.
My fitness journey is improving in 2024 where I successfully completed a local half marathon. Following this success, I am inspired for a far greater personal challenge of my first ever marathon. SCOPE is described best below but simply they support disabled people in every aspect and I am privileged to raise money and awareness to this cause.
There are 16 million disabled people in the UK. That’s one in four of us. Life is harder when you’re disabled. You're twice as likely to be unemployed and the cost of living is higher by £1,010* each month. It’s wrong and unacceptable.
Scope’s mission is for disabled people have the same opportunities as everyone else.
So, I'm fundraising for Scope to create a fairer society.
We want a future that’s fair to disabled people, always. Join me in making this happen.
All funds go directly towards supporting Scope’s vision of a world where disabled people have the same opportunities as everyone else. We campaign relentlessly to create a fairer society, while providing practical and emotional advice and support to disabled people and their families when it’s needed most.
