Thats right, I'll be running a full Marathon... my first marathon and biggest challenge yet - eeek! 🏃🏽‍♀️

Making that first step is always the hardest, no matter what you're goal, vision, or hope. I genuinely believe that with a little bit of courage and the right support, you can do anything you put your mind to. So with that in mind, I'll be off to run Manchester Marathon, to support those in need of what might be considered a simple home comfort - a decent warm meal.

MLSS aim to provide hot meals to vulnerable members of society living in challenging situations such as homeless members of the community and those living on the poverty line as well as children in deprived households. It is built on the foundation of Sikh Ethos ‘VandKeh Shakna’ (Share what you have with others) where help and support is given to all, regardless of social status, race or background. A charity which is close to the hear and home.

You may be familiar with their Annual Homeless Christmas Dinner which has taken place for the last 7 years in Birmingham. This is just one of MLSS UK's fantastic projects....they serve over 40,000 free hot street meals a week, across the UK, and so much more!

So, I'll be training and preparing (both mentally and physically!) over the coming weeks/months and hope that we can all pull together to support this great cause. You can follow my progress on this page, and any donations would be massively appreciated. Thank you!
