Fundraising for The Fire Fighters Charity
Story
Having to defer in 2023 wasn’t a decision I took lightly
But I’m ready to take the challenge on on Sunday 21st April
I’ve been astounded, humbled and overwhelmed by the support for not only me, but more
Importantly the firefighters charity, and want to thank you all for your donations
I'm running the 2024 TCS London Marathon in support of The Fire Fighters Charity. They provide specialist lifelong support for members of the UKs fire services community, empowering individuals to achieve mental, physical and social wellbeing throughout their lives.
I have been an operational Firefighter since 2005 and in that time have seen many friends benefit from the services the charity provides. It wasn't until 2017 when my call for help was answered.
I can't thank the charity enough for getting me back up and running (excuse the pun) following a significant injury which required surgery.
Running the marathon is my personal way of saying thank you and giving something back.
Keep smiling everyone, we are all in this together xxx
