We are fundraising for Children on the Edge - to create safe spaces for refugees in Lebanon, Bangladesh, Uganda, India, Myanmar and Romania.

Story

Hey everyone! I'm pumped to be running another marathon, this time for "Children on the Edge," a charity supporting refugees around the world.

A couple years back, I discovered running by mudding my way through fun 10ks. It was awesome! The feeling kept me pushing further, leading me to my first marathon last year. Now, here I am ready for round two!

Being an uncle to 6 (and adopted uncle to many more!), I'm passionate about keeping kids active and involved in sports. Sadly, not all kids have safe spaces and opportunities to do that.

That's where "Children on the Edge" comes in. They create protective, nurturing environments for refugee children in countries like Lebanon, Bangladesh, and Uganda. These kids deserve to play, learn, and grow like any other child!

So, I'm aiming to raise £262 (that's £10 per mile) to support their amazing work. Any donation, big or small, will make a huge difference in a child's life.

Together, let's help kids on the edge find their happiness and potential!
