Story

I have wanted to run the London Marathon for many, many years, but have never been successful gaining a place through the ballot. Previously, I have been put off applying for a charity place because of the amount of money I would need the raise. Then Jess was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes last July and I decided it was time to run the marathon and raise money for a cause very close to my heart. 

Jess has been so fortunate to benefit from all the technology, that is now available, to support her in managing her blood sugar levels. So, I want to do my bit, by raising as much money as possible, so that Diabetes UK can continue to support people with diabetes and research how to treat and possibly cure it.

Any amount you could spare would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks, Cath xxx
