Story

I cant explain how honoured I am to have the opportunity to take part in the London Marathon 2019, and for such a good cause that is very close to my family's hearts.

DEBRA is national charity that supports individuals and family's affected by 'Epidermolysis Bullosa' (EB).......... those born with EB have skin so fragile they are called butterfly children, their skin is quite simply as fragile as the wing of a butterfly.

My cousin's little boy Ollie was diagnosed with EB when he was born, this affects both him and his family on a daily basis and ive never heard him or them complain once.  He is the strongest young boy I know and for this reason I am taking myself out of my comfort zone to train for the next 9 months running up to the London Marathon in April 2019.

I will be training and completing the London Marathon to raise awareness and money so we can all support the DEBRA fund and hopefully one day find a cure.

Any and all donations are gratefully accepted and I personally thank you in advance for your support.
