Story

Very proud to be running the London Landmarks Half Marathon on 7th April 2024 for the amazing Meals & More charity, along with some of my work colleagues at Sysco GB. We are raising funds to support the fantastic work of Meals & More who are working hard to reduce child 'Holiday Hunger' in communities across the UK.

Its 2024 and yet a third of UK children currently live in poverty...while they may have access to free school meals during term time, they are not guaranteed a nutritious meal during school holidays. Meals & More funds holiday clubs across the UK that provide both healthy meals and enrichment activities.The ongoing cost of living crisis makes the work of Meals & More even more critical.

WHY SPONSOR ME in 2024? Well....many of you will know that I am a keen runner and may think that running this half marathon will be a breeze for me 🤣....so I have set myself a challenge to run this event AND then A WEEK LATER I will run the Manchester MARATHON mmmmm thats 39.3 miles in 7 days..SO....PLEASE sponsor me on this challenge (it is quite hard!) and help me raise valuable funds for Meals & More to continue their amazing work.

Thank you very much for your support. Xx
