As many of you may know, both us and our younger brother Daniel lost our parents in traumatic circumstances 15 years ago. Barnardos were amazing in supporting us and our wonderful granny Carmel during an incredibly difficult time.

Our mum Sharon was an avid runner, having done Belfast marathon in just over 4 hours, where we both watched on and were in awe of her strength. This year on April 26th we both take on London marathon in her honour.

Every mile in training and the race will be done remembering her strength, determination and joy for running. Callum has joked his competive side will mean he’ll be aiming to beat mums time, while Leah may be a few steps behind; times will not be important. It will be all about remembering mum and raising money for a wonderful charity.

Every donation will be greatly appreciated by both us and Barnardos. We are truly honoured to be able to give back to a charity who gave us so much.

Thank you so much!

Callum and Leah :)
