Story

Another year and a new team of Rossendale Runners will be taking on the challenge of a lifetime. Having dedicated a huge amount of time and energy to their training, the team will finally get to take to the streets of London as part of the 2023 London Marathon. They all have a story to tell and a personal challenge to complete and we hope that you can support them along every step of their 26.2 miles and help them cross the finish line on April 23rd.

Please show your support for our team by donating. Donations received will go directly to our WorkTaste project. WorkTaste is a supported employment scheme for adults with learning disabilities. WorkTaste provides opportunities for people with learning disabilities to take on roles and responsibilities in a place of work, enabling them to grow and develop their skills and their confidence. More often than not people with learning disabilities are denied these opportunities but with 1:1 support from a WorkTaste coach the hurdles and barriers they face are overcome.
