Story

I’ve wanted to challenge myself for many years and do it before I’m 30! I will undergo a full summer of training to get ready to tackle 78.6 miles (3 marathons!!) along the coast of Cornwall in 3 days. The event takes place on the 8th, 9th & 10th of October. 

I’m going to run 3 marathons in 3 days for my chosen charity - Vranch House. They are in need of a new wheelchair accessible school bus to enable all of their pupils to access valuable day trips, interact with and be part of their community and learn important life skills. This amazing  school and charity is something my grandfather helped set up for his daughter Trudy who was severely disabled from birth. Vranch house is an organisation that is close to my heart and to this day Vranch House continue help many children in the Exeter area. 3 days of pain will be incomparable to the challenges the young pupils and patients of Vranch house face each day. 

Vranch House is a non-profit charity organisation so fundraising for important pieces of equipment and adaptations is vital to support the children and young people in their care. The pupils at Vranch House are truly inspirational and deserve to be given the opportunities they need to thrive, succeed and have fun. The donations will go directly to Vranch House and will be used to purchase a new school bus that is accessible to all of our pupils.
