My name is Stephen Colclough and thank you so much for visiting my JustGiving page! I am preparing to take on a personal challenge by running in the Connemara International Half Marathon on 19 April 2026 in Galway. This journey is not just about the miles I will cover, but about the hope and healing we can bring to those affected by past conflicts and institutional abuses—a cause that is deeply close to my heart.

The WAVE Trauma Centre stands as a vital beacon of support for survivors of the Troubles, Historical Institutional Abuse, Mother and Baby Institutions, Magdalene Laundries, and Workhouses in Northern Ireland. Their dedicated trauma recovery services restore dignity and offer a path forward for many who have endured unimaginable hardships. The need for their work has never been greater, as countless individuals continue to seek healing and justice.

Every step I run is dedicated to raising awareness and crucial funds for this incredible charity. The WAVE Trauma Centre relies entirely on generous donations to sustain their life-changing work. Your support means more than words can express—it means real change for those who need it most.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, secure, and your contribution goes directly to the charity without delay or extra fees. If you feel moved to help, please join me in supporting this cause. Together, we can make a lasting difference—one step at a time.
