Story

On 17th November at the strike of midnight, Kelly and I will have 24 hours to run as far as we can! 

We start just outside Coventry with the aim of heading towards London. This will be a physical and mental challenge... how far can we go, 30 miles, 60 miles, 90 miles or more! Our aim is to just keep moving forward, one step at a time. 


We wanted to take this opportunity to raise money for a fantastic local group, Team Ben Hammond. TBH is a fundraising group started by Steve and Sheralyn after their son Ben died suddenly at the age of 15 from an undiagnosed heart conditon. 

Every week in the UK at least 12 apparently fit and healthy young people die of undiagnosed cardiac conditions. 

Noone should have to go through what Ben's family and friends have. 

With Team Ben Hammond's fundraising and their work alongside Cardiac Risk in the Young (CRY), they have screened over 1000 young people aged 14-35. 

Your donation can really make a difference to these young people and families.

Thank you 💚
