Update - 21st May.... Well I did it! My time was 53 minutes which I am pretty chuffed with as this was my first 10k run. More importantly we have raised some cash for Francis House in Louisa's memory so huge thanks to everyone who has donated & for those of you still thinking about it there is still time to donate to this fantastic cause. Thanks again to everyone for your support, it is very much appreciated & a big thankyou to those of you who were cheering me on whilst I was running, it really helped knowing you were supporting me.

Hello and thank you for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page...

I am raising funds for Francis House in memory of Louisa Barker who is very much missed by myself, my family & our friends. All of you who knew Louisa know how very special she was, a truly inspiring young lady.

Huge thanks to everyone who has donated so far, I really do appreciate it & know it will help Francis House continue their amazing work, not only in caring for the kids but also in supporting families during what can often be a very difficult & challenging time for parents & siblings.

Having had first hand experience of Francis House, I hope my fundraising goes a small way to saying thank you for the support & kindness which was shown to my family. It was truly appreciated and will never be forgotten.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it’s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

So please dig deep and donate now if you haven't already - It truly is for a great cause!

Now where are my trainers...?

Massive thank you, Darren x
