Story
This fundraising page will include everything from a half marathon to an Ironman Triathlon. I am aiming to get you involved in these efforts by organising events like group runs and competitions. I will document efforts made on Instagram and YouTube, help is welcome!
War Child:
War Child UK is the only specialist charity for children affected by conflict. They strive for a world in which no child's life is torn apart by war, by protecting, educating and standing up for the rights of children living in war zones.
They aim to reach children as early as possible when conflict breaks out and stay to support them through their recovery keeping them safe, helping them learn and cope with their experiences, and equipping them with skills for the future. Understanding children's needs, respecting their rights, and putting them at the centre of the solution is key.
By making a donation, you will be making a difference to thousands of children whose lives have been turned upside-down by conflict. You’ll help War Child provide the emergency care and support they need to overcome the emotional and physical toll of conflict, as well as access to services to catch up on lost education that will help to transform their futures for the better.
Together with their partners they deliver vital, life-saving work in countries across Africa, Asia and the Middle East, Europe and Latin America.

It’s a privilege to take on a project like this and to challenge myself on my terms as opposed to others who are forced into the unbelievable hardships of war. No child’s life should be devastated by war.
I will be trying to be as loud and boisterous as possible to raise attention for this cause
