I'm incredibly proud to be Chief Executive of Whizz Kidz; our work transforms a young wheelchair user's independence, confidence, and future opportunities. I'm running the London Marathon 2026 for children like Charlie - https://youtu.be/M-KCkiqlCFk.

Charlie is one of the 75,000 young people in the UK who need a wheelchair to be mobile. For the first time in our history, we’ve had to close applications for wheelchairs because of unprecedented demand. That means children who desperately need our help can’t even apply. Over 1,000 children like Charlie are currently stuck waiting, while their childhood slips away day by day.

We urgently need to raise £750,000 to reopen our waiting list so that young wheelchair users can enjoy all of the opportunities and activities that so many others take for granted ‐ at home, at school, at work and beyond.

Your donation will make a huge difference to young people like Charlie, giving them the freedom they deserve.

Thank you.
