Story

We are a group of "Fat Girls" trying to improve our fitness levels while having fun.

As total beginners it was never going to be easy, but to keep us motivated we have organised a fundraising event for a charity close to the heart of the group leader.

So, after just 12 weeks of training, having all set our own personal goals (between 1km - 10km) we are running/walking/crawling to raise the awareness of, and as much money as we can for :
THE WEDDING WISHING WELL FOUNDATION

This charity helps couples with terminal or life limiting illnesses, turn their dreams into reality and create memories for those they leave behind, by organising and funding their dream wedding.

TWWWF relies solely on the generosity of Wedding Industry Professionals and charitable donations.

Naomi Thomas (founder) and her team work tirelessly to raise the charity's profile and much needed funds.
Every single penny raised really does make a difference to this charity and to the couples and families of those it has helped.

Please help us to help them !

Thank you

About the charity

The Wedding Wishing Well Foundation is a new organisation launched in 2012 with a single purpose- organising and funding weddings for terminally ill people. There are many men and women in the UK living with life limiting conditions or terminal illnesses who long to marry their special partner in life. We, at The Wedding Wishing Well Foundation believe that few things in life can be more important or rewarding, than giving such a person a chance to have their dream wedding day, with all the excitement, love and happiness that brings. As we are fully aware that time can be precious, we are able to organise the arrangements against the clock where required. For many families, the memory of a happy wedding day can be a cherished moment. Surrounded by family and friends, enjoying each other’s company and being full of joy and laughter; a wedding day is an occasion where everyone can look back and remember that special event, and smile.
