Story
On Good Friday, 2016, Ned got in the car with his grandmother and they headed off to an Easter Egg Hunt. That was the last time we saw him alive.
Their car was involved in a head-on collision. Ned's grandmother and two adults in the other car died on impact. Ned was taken out of the car and paramedics from the Wales Air Ambulance fought to save his life. Despite their heroic efforts, Ned died at the roadside 40 minutes later. He was 5 years old.
Ned's older brother, Tomi, was 8 years old at the time, and his little brother, Cai, was a year and a half. This March, Ned would have been turning 13 - becoming a teenager - a milestone in life that he will never get to reach.
To honour this milestone, Tomi and Cai wanted to raise money in Ned's memory. They have decided to take on a running challenge.
Cai is challenging himself to run 13 miles over a week - 2 miles a day and then a mile on the last day (Ned's birthday, the 2nd of March).
Tomi is challenging himself to run his first senior race - he will be running the Aberystwyth 10k later this year.
I am so very proud of the two of them and hope that they receive lots of support to raise as much money as possible for the Wales Air Ambulance, in memory of their brother.
