As many of you knew I am taking on the physical and mental battle of completing Ironman UK on 4th August and then going on to compete in Ironman Wales a month later on the 8th September just to add to the the challenge.

The challenge I am undertaking will be noting in comparison to the battle that the beautiful and brave Emilie Faith Austin has gone through over the past year. The charity I will be raising money for is the rainbow trust fund as this charity is close to Becky, Dave and Emilie's heart.

Over the past few months Emilie has been recieving visits from Ben one of the support workers from the rainbow trust fund. He comes to play with Em for an hour or so giving Becky and Dave a bit of time to get daily jobs done.  Becky said Ben is a god send. Em dearly loves him and they work to support many families across Manchester who are experiencing life threatening problems. It's a bit like respite or they will run errands for the families like shopping, helping with cleaning etc. Ben comes to play with Em when she feeling bored or needs cheering up.

Please dig deep for this amazing charity.

Thank you so much! Love Laura xx
