Story

As the Corporate Fundraising Manager for the wonderful St Luke’s I think it is essential to do what I can to support St Luke’s incredible work in my own personal capacity.

I turned 28 in January and am running 280 miles of running events throughout 2018 to try and raise £2800 for St Luke’s. This plan will involve running Park Runs, the Totley AC Fell Running Series, Half Marathons, a Marathon and even an Ultra Marathon. Thank you all for your support!
