Story
As lots of you know Laura and Kathryn are hitting that big 4-0 later this year and to mark this momentous occasion we wanted to take on a challenge and what better than the 26 hard miles of the London Marathon on April 22nd.... and honestly it’s not just an excuse to wear Sweaty Betty gear everyday (although it is very comfy), we are also hoping to raise funds for an amazing children’s charity - Dreamflight
Every October, Dreamflight takes nearly 200 children with a serious illness or disability, without parents on a holiday of a lifetime to Orlando, Florida. A full medical team of volenteers accompany the children giving the parents peace of mind and some much needed recpite.
For the children the fun and enjoyment of this trip are just as important as medical research and equipment- especially for those who perhaps can’t wait long enough for the breakthrough they need or whose illness and treatment have brought pain, distress and disruption to their lives. We really hope we can make a difference to some children and their families who really need it
We appreciate many of you support other charities and may also know others taking part in the London Marathon this year, so please don’t feel any obligation to support us finacially, but maybe we’ll see some of you along the course or at the very least give us a shout through the television! We are going to need lots of encouragement and drinks afterwards!.
Many thanks
Laura and Kathryn
