Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I was meant to run this in 2020 but my place was pushed back to 2023 due to covid. So three years older , another baby in between and I'm.ready to go again.  For those of you who donated in 2020, your money has already passed to the charity who are extremely  greatful,  as am I!  However if you would like to donate again, that would be amazing, or a share is also very much appreciated.  

I'm running for the Down Syndrome Assuciation as most of you will know my little boy Ted  has Down Syndrome. He runs a marathon everyday with his condition so it's the least I can do to raise awareness  for children and families like ours who often have little support snd rely on the Down Syndrome ssociation for help. 

Ted is a Superstar,  no doubt, but our fight for his inclusion in the world is massive . To be accepted as being capable and worthy as anyone to have the same opportunities is a daily fight. He attends a wonderful school that like us advocate on his behalf, but wouldn't it be great if inclusion and acceptance was something that didn't need to be fought for....

I'm really greatful  for you taking the time to read this. Wish me luck! X
