Sadly, our beautiful Molly was horrifically taken from us on the morning of Thursday 29th June. We would like to channel the support we have already received to support Molly’s commitment to helping those around her. Her ongoing battle with her eating disorder and her drive to help others is the focus of our mission.

Just the evening before Molly was taken from us, she was celebrating with her friends on her success of enrolling on a personal training course which would set her up for the lifelong commitment in health and well-being which was an extension of her current degree of study. This perfectly demonstrates Molly’s passion for promoting self-acceptance of body image, achieved through holistic wellbeing, healthy life style and positive mental attitudes. She actively promoted this through her blog and social media to inspire change and instil confidence in others.

For those of you who were close to Molly, you will know that she battled with bulimia and subsequently anxiety, as a result of an eating disorder, for many years of her life. Instead of letting this beat her, she shared her own story in the hopes of empowering others around her. We want to create a legacy in her honour by channelling her passion and drive to create the most positive outcome possible through the creation of The Molly McLaren Foundation. Through funding, The Molly McLaren Foundation seeks to raise awareness and funds to help people suffering from eating disorders.

On the 21st October, I will be basically throwing myself out of a plane (totally blaming this one on you Mols) in aid of attempting to raise a bit more money for The Molly McLaren Foundation. Please don't feel like you have to, but all donations will be going straight to the charity and I would be so grateful. All the support so far towards the charity has been amazing and we couldn't be more thankful.
