On the 21st April 2025, I'll be running the London Marathon to raise money for the Orchard Vale Trust! 💚🍏

Not my first marathon attempt, but after my marathon in 2022 was cancelled last-minute, I'm hoping to throw myself back into training. This time I'll have a crowd and my family and friends behind me and it'll mean even more to have that encouragement and support :)

As I'm working towards my goal, others deserve to have support to work towards their goals as well. Orchard Vale Trust is a charity that helps adults with learning disabilities to live life to the full. They support each individual towards their unique dreams and ambitions, and share their achievements with their community. 

There are activities to match people's strengths, interests and needs - music, pottery, zumba, IT courses, financial education, cookery, employability schemes and more. They also enable the people they work with to give back to their community, supporting them to offer services such as gardening.

While I'm achieving progression in my training, with your generosity we can also help others to achieve what they want to achieve and be a part of their local communities.
