Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

During lockdown Chris and I have been fortunate and have been able to help out locally by volunteering, collecting and delivering shopping and prescriptions for those that are more vulnerable. Doing this we became aware of William and the struggles that he and his family face every day.  Lockdown has made life even harder for them as they have to isolate. William is only 3 and a half years old and has Angelman Syndrome, something I had never heard of until I read his story. William and his family have been through so much already and have so many more difficult times ahead.  Please look at #Bemorewilliam to read their story.  

I have never been a runner and always said I could never do a half marathon. The furthest I have ever run is 10km,. Chris and I are going to do a half marathon on Thursday 7th May. I know during these times we are all struggling emotionally, physically and financially but please please dig deep and donate if you can. 

Now Steve Edwards is also going to run! That’s got to be worth a donation!
