I am brave enough (or stupid enough) to take on challenge of the London 2017 Marathon (my first ever marathon) in hopes to raise much needed funds for LauraLynn, Ireland's Children's Hospice. As many of you already know, this is great charity based in Dublin which provides palliative care and support for children with life-limiting conditions and to their families. Their holistic approach to care enables them to support the whole family, allowing parents to be ‘Mum and Dad’ rather than full-time carers.

I have set a goal to raid £2,500 and would really appreciate any help and support over the next few months in order to meet this goal. I will keep you updated with my progress and struggles along the way.

Thank you!
