Thanks for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page.
So, we’re doing Southampton Marathon, as well as a few other runs and events along the way!
I wasn’t sure I had another marathon in me but I want to raise money for a very good cause and the others have agreed to join me
One of our best friends’ baby boy, Rexford, has been diagnosed with Shwachman–Diamond syndrome
Shwachman-Diamond syndrome (SDS) is a rare, inherited bone marrow failure, characterized by a low number of white blood cells, poor growth due to difficulty absorbing food, and, in some cases, skeletal abnormalities.
(There’s a lot more to it, this is just simplified)
There’s not a lot we can do but thought that by doing this, we can raise money for a charity that helps families with this diagnosis as well as research into the condition
The full list of things we will be doing between us to raise money for this great charity is….
29th July - 80’s night with raffle ✔️
1st Oct - quiz night ✔️
8th October - Royal Parks Half Marathon ✔️
15th October - Great South Run ✔️
25th February - quiz night
7th April - the big one, Southampton Marathon
There will probably also be a few other smaller fundraisers too
Keep your eyes peeled and please help us raise as much as we can for this small but very needed charity
Thankyou, from all of us x
