Story

From raving to running! I'm super pleased to be part of this years team to raise money for Fight for sight. Zein Raad, Gavin Anthony and I will be running this years London marathon for this incredible cause, for our beautiful soul sister Laura Jones. Fight for Sight funds pioneering research to prevent sight loss and treat eye disease. Over the past few years Laura has had amazing support to raise money for Fight for Sight and training and fund raising isn't a walk in the park. Over the next few weeks Zeina, Gavin and I will be on lockdown *trying to get our asses into gear. All support and contributions will be massively appreciated. 

8 years ago Laura was diagnosed with a degenerative eye disuse and was told that she was going blind. I have always had the upmost respect for how positive Laura is and found the strength and determination to face the challenges that come along with having this condition. Over the past four years Gill Dalton, Hayley Tolfery, Lucy Lucy and Tom Thorpe have run the London marathon and raised over 10k for Fight for Sight. With another strong team in place to run this years event please get behind us all and help to continue raising money and spreading awareness for this amazing cause.
