Story

Thanks for visiting my page and helping me achieve a dream of running the 2023 London Marathon (my 3rd World Major)! 

This year I will be taking part in the London Marathon to raise money for the Catholic Children's Society (CCS). I have read about the excellent work CCS does across London, supporting some of the most vulnerable children and families. It is a fantastic charity open to all who need help. Through their mental health services, family centers, and Crisis Fund they help disadvantaged children and families overcome the challenges they face and have hope for a brighter future. 

I am very grateful for their commitment to and adherence to Catholic values.

I am especially honored to support their work in supporting bereavement services for children who have lost their parents. The Lord wishes us to support those who mourn and are in need. Surely this cause is extremely meaningful in the lives of so many suffering children.

Thank you in advance for helping me raise the funds to participate in the Marathon and, in so doing, helping CCS make a difference in many lives.
