Team RSBC are taking on the London Marathon 2020 to ensure blind children can live a life without limits.

Story

Thank you for visiting my JustGiving Page. I am taking on the BIG challenge of London Marathon in 2020 to raise money for blind children! This is going to be the biggest challenge both physically and mentally of my life!

I believe no child in the UK should grow up to be poor or lonely just because they are blind. By donating today you can help make sure every single blind child has the self-belief and skills to fulfil the potential we know they've got.

Abigail is one of my close friends little girl. She is 4 years old and has a rare condition called optic atrophy. It is confirmed she has no sight in her right eye and is currently undergoing tests to see if she is blind in her left eye, as her current prescription for that eye is +7.50.  

The RSBC have a team of family engagement workers throughout the country who offer practical and emotional support to the parents helping to build confidence and easing anxiety. They also go into Abigail's school weekly to support her and the teaching staff. This support only costs £519.00 per year, per family. 

RSBC's motto is "life without limits," and I've never been more inspired than watching Abigail and her family go and smash through challenges every day, such as Abigail performing on stage in her dance school show. 

Please show me your support with this event, as I'm going to need it! Lets make a difference to this small charity!
