The reason I applied for the London marathon through Headway is because it is close to my heart. My Dad had an accident at work which resulted in a head injury in 2013. 

Before the accident my Dad was an energetic man with such a kind and gentle personality he loved a challenge from skydiving, half marathons, motorbiking, running the 3 peaks and the general outdoors. 

Since this accident my families lives have changed so much. The accident resulted in a head injury which has lead to no speech, swallowing problems, deterioration with coordination and confusion which meant he had to retire early. 

Even though my Dad has all of these challenges he is such an inspiration from the day he retired on the 31st July 2020 he has walked 6 miles everyday, walking the same route at the same time of day. He is amazing. 

I wanted to raise money for this charity so they can help other families like ours.
