I am super proud and excited to announce that I will be taking part in the London Marathon 2024 for Barnardo's. Due to the COVID 19 Pandemic i was unable to take part in 2020.
Running the Iconic London marathon has been a dream of mine, ever since i started running, around 7 years ago... although its been on hold for the past two years as I am now a mother myself to two children (my biggest motivation)
I feel very lucky to have been chosen to run it on behalf of this amazing charity which i hold close to my heart. I stand by the mission statement that 'a child's future shouldn't be defined by the past' and as a child that came from a not so stable background, i feel very strongly about breaking the cycle of disadvantage.
Barnardo's transforms the lives of the most vulnerable children around the world. They believe in every child no matter what they have been through or what they have done. They work to bring out the very best in every child whether the issue is child poverty, sexual exploitation, disability, homelessness or domestic violence.
Of course, all charities are worthy causes, but I hope you can take the time to look at the Barnardo's website: https://www.barnardos.org.uk/ read about what they do and make a donation here on my page. I would be extremely grateful.
Support is going to be the key to my motivation and training from not only my family and friends, but from donations and advice from anyone and everyone.
