I've worked for Barnardo's for over a decade and seen first hand the amazing work they do for children, young people & families. 

I worked in homelessness services, with care leavers, survivors of child exploitation, children with poor mental health and I know how important voluntary funds are to ensure we can deliver the very best service to those who we serve. 

Doing a marathon is a huge challenge for anyone. I'm a survivor of TB and have some mobility issues with my right leg due to complications during an operation and an intolerance to the metal work in my leg. 

But, anyone who knows me knows I'm stubborn and will do anything I set my mind to. 

Please follow my Couch to 42k journey and help me support the charity I love
