These Kirkby men are gearing up to participate in the Liverpool to Manchester Ultramarathon, an exceptional event hosted by GB Ultras. They will push their limits and pour their hearts into their run, inspired by the resilient spirit of the children they aim to aid.

Through teamwork, determination, and Kirkby's supportive community spirit, these local heroes will run to ensure that children in need can continue to benefit from Claire's House's extraordinary support. Rally behind them as their incredible journey unfolds; every penny donated makes a tangible difference and helps bring hope and comfort to the families who need it most.

Together, we can show that the bond of community extends beyond our own families and that by uniting for a common cause, we can make a world of difference in the lives of those who need it most.
