Story

Hello! 

I'm tackling the Baxter's 10k on September 24th to raise funds to enable my two-year-old nephew Sam to undergo specialist therapies.

When Sam was born it was found his brain had not fully developed in the womb. This means he needs a bit of extra help to allow him to achieve his full potential - he's responding really well to therapies that, we hope, will allow him to walk one day.  Sadly these therapies are not available on the NHS - which is where Team Sam comes in!

More than 150 people have been so touched by Sam's story that they are taking part in the Baxter's Festival of Running to help him. 

Every penny raised is helping change Sam's life, and I can't thank you enough for being one of the people who are helping him achieve all that he can ❤️

Thank you,

Nicola X
