Iʼve raised £1,480 to help with ongoing work of Connect2 TC Forth Valley
- Funded on Saturday, 29th April 2023
Don't have time to donate right now?
Story
I am taking on the triple challenge of the Chester half marathon (13.1 miles) on 15th May, Edinburgh marathon (26.2 miles) on 29th May & the Welsh run to the castle ultra marathon (42 miles) on 13th August to raise desperate funding for a charity called Connect2 Teen Challenge Forth Valley.
This charity is very close to my family as both my dad, Stephen and step mum, Joan dedicates their time to volunteering for this charity to reach out and help people with life controlling addictions such as drug and alcoholism.
The charity doesn’t receive any funding it’s down to the fabulous volunteers and charity supporters to raise the money needed to keep them going. The charity has a bus which travels throughout the Forth Valley area, they need £500 a month to keep the charity going and the bus on the road so that they reach out to as many people as possible and provide help and support.
I know things are tough right now with everything that’s going on in the world, but please if you can spare a couple of pounds in sponsorship, I would be forever grateful. I will post updates as I take part in each the challenges hopefully with a finishers medal at the end of each one.

2 years agoSaturday 4th March 2023, will be a day that I remember for a very long time to come as I completed the Chester 50-mile ultramarathon, which turned out to be 53.45 miles after a small navigational error. Thank you so much for all your very kind donations which the charity will really benefit from. I’ve also got to say a massive thank you to my running partner, Jules Collins who agrees to take part in these crazy events with me. Now to put my feet up for a few days' rest before I think of something else to do. Thanks again, Louise ❤️
