Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I’m taking on the challenge of running two marathons within six months to support two charities. I’ll be running the Leeds Marathon on Sunday 10 May, followed by the Yorkshire Marathon on Sunday 18 October, raising funds for Saint Michael’s Hospice and Mind - both closely connected to my workplace, Rudding Park. After several months of training, I’m fully committed and excited to push myself through both events while supporting two important causes.

Saint Michael’s is the local hospice care charity ensuring people affected by terminal illness across the Harrogate district can access high quality, personalised care. We do this by offering a range of services from our Hornbeam Park-based hospice, and out in the community in people’s own homes, as well as reaching out regionally and nationally. We are also passionate about working in partnership to enable others to offer hospice-standard care. We believe everyone should get care that is personalised and responsive to their individual needs.
