Support Team Whizz Kidz and help transform the lives of young wheelchair users.

Story

Hello, I am proud to take part in the London Marathon 2026 for Team Whizz Kidz!

This brilliant charity provides wheelchairs to young people from eighteen months, to twenty-five years old.

A few years ago my son broke his leg. Quite quickly he changed from being sociable and outgoing, to sitting on a sofa, losing interest in others and becoming withdrawn and isolated. We eventually managed to borrow a wheelchair and he instantly became happier and integrated with friends once again. We were able to take him outside which made a huge and positive difference to his general well-being.

My son was so lucky that he made a full recovery. Many young people are not so fortunate. By supporting this charity, you can make a real improvement to the quality of life of a young person and help them enjoy the experiences that other young people can.

Please donate! I’m so grateful and any amount is a huge help.
