Story
I am going the extra mile for Winston's Wish and taking on the London Landmarks Half marathon 2025!
I am running this marathon to honour my Mum, Amber, who passed away when I was a child ❤️
They have supported me immensely in my grief journey, not only in the counselling support but through the opportunities through the youth team. They definitely helped me so much when I have been in a low place in my grief. To have had this support when my Mum had just passed away when I was 11 would have been amazing.
I want to make sure other children can be supported by this amazing charity when they have lost someone especially when it’s a parent.
Winston's Wish supports over 60,000 grieving children, young people and their families every year, enabling them to find positive ways of coping, and developing the tools needed to rebuild their futures after the death of someone important in their lives.
Your donations mean that Winston’s Wish can be there for grieving children and young people who need someone to talk to, as well as parents, carers and professionals seeking guidance, through our on-demand services.
