Story

As some of you may know, each year I set myself a physically demanding challenge to help those most in need, with every year the challenge getting more difficult and more ambitious. With us now in 2023, I have set my toughest challenge to date and I am delighted to be supporting Ambitious About Autism in my endeavours, the UK’s leading national charity for children & young people with autism.

This year, I will complete 3 of the 6 Major (largest and most renowned) Marathons around the world. The mission begins in April with London Marathon, then on to Germany for the Berlin Marathon and finally to America for the Chicago Marathon. I’m also throwing in a Half Marathon in Scotland for good measure!

After 4 years coaching and helping autistic children of different ages and abilities in a boxing capacity, this is a charity very close to my heart. The money you help me raise will go towards helping more young people with autism to learn, thrive, achieve and lead fulfilling lives through early intervention, education and support. It will also help to provide specialist help to autistic children across the country to tackle isolation, anxiety and mental health problems.

My target is to raise £3,000 for this amazing charity. Your support would be massively appreciated and will make a huge difference to these young people’s lives.

Many thanks, 

Mark.
