I will be running the Edinburgh Marathon this year, and will be doing so to raise funds for St Andrew's Children's Society.

As an agency, we dedicate ourselves to supporting our adoptive and foster families, in order that our children can grow up feeling loved, secure, and with a deep sense of belonging.

Since this work relies heavily on the generosity and support of others, I am therefore sincerely appreciative of any support provided.

It will not be fast, it will definitely not be pretty, but it will certainly be worth it!
