Matilda's Story

Just4Children are raising money to help Matilda gain her independence and overcome the challenges of living with Cerebral Palsy. The money raised will go to therapies to help her to hopefully sit, crawl and walk.

Story

On the 23rd of January 2026 I will be taking part in the UTMB Arc of Attrition 100 Mile Ultra, running along the Cornish coast to raise money towards getting Matilda to All Kids Are Perfect in America for a 3 week DMI therapy intensive.

Arc 100 runners will complete a point to point 100 mile course entirely along the South West Coast Path, a National Trail and one of England's longest marked footpaths. It will start at Coverack and finish at the Eco Park in Porthtowan. There is a time limit of 36 hours and my aim is to get over the line within 24 hours so I don’t go completely mad.

I am doing this to raise money to help Matilda gain her independence and overcome the challenges of living with Cerebral Palsy. The money raised will allow us to take another trip to America to complete a 3 week DMI intensive, the cost of this all in is around £15,000.
