On 2nd Oct 2022 I'm taking on the London Marathon for the Royal Society for Blind Children (RSBC). Today there are an estimated 44,000 blind and partially sighted children in England and Wales. Each day, four more children will be diagnosed with sight loss.-Blind children are twice as likely to be bullied-One in three will suffer from depression and other mental health issues-90% will never have a long-term job -Two thirds of blind people are living on or below the poverty line-Most will never have a meaningful relationshipRSBC help blind children to realise their potential. They run a family support service, working with families to help provide the best possible environment for their child to grow and thrive. They also help blind children to develop confidence and independence through their 'Live Life Go Further' programme of activities, building amazing friendships along the way.The target of £2,500 for each runner will help RSBC to support one child for a whole year!
