Story

Hi there and thanks so much for visiting my page!

In only a few weeks, I'll be limbering up, applying the vaseline (!) and taking part in my first marathon ever, here in gorgeous London town. 

And all in support of a fabulous charity I've been a donor to for many years: Sense.

If you don't know them already, Sense do amazing and life-changing work with people who have complex disabilities. 

That could be with people who are deaf-blind, people with autism, or with any other complex disability. 

Sense have the aim that everyone should be able to take part in life, no matter their ability/disability. 

More than 1.6 million people in the UK need their help.

So here's where I need yours :) anything you can spare, literally anything, will be used to transform the lives of children and adults who need this extra level of care. 

I'm super appreciative this is a difficult year for everyone, so really any contribution and you're a hero in my eyes. 

(And come 2 October, it's that single thought that'll keep me going when I hit that wall that everyone keeps warning me about...)

Thank you so much and if you're in town that day please come say hi!
