Story
Marches Family Network are a lifeline for hundreds of families in Herefordshire and the surrounding counties. Our sessions are the only inclusive, accessible and supported activities that many disabled children and young adults can access, on both the weekends and school holidays.
I love my Marches trips. The adults are so kind and fun. We go to lots of places and I make new friends. I have lots of fun. I do cool things and the grown ups help to keep me safe. I made lots of new friends too.
Supporting families and young people is what we do best. However, as a charity, we rely on donations, grants and fundraising to continue our vital work. Without this, many young people would be left isolated, unable to meet with their peers, and families would be left with no respite from their caring responsibilities.
MFN provides a lifeline to families like mine who find themselves unable to access most of what is out there for children to take part in. It creates a community, not just for the young people it looks after but for the families too
Our #TeamMarches runners are taking on the challenge of the London Landmarks Half Marathon knowing that they will be supporting hundreds of families and young people through their fundraising efforts. Can you help to support them?
