Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

On 2^nd October 2022 I will be taking on the London Marathon to raise vital funds for Blind Veterans UK.

This charity relies solely on donation to provide life changing support, equipment, rehabilitation and training to thousands of veterans across the UK who are living with sight loss. Their support enables these veterans to rebuild their lives after sight loss – to lead independent, fulfilling lives. 

The London Marathon is one of the most well-known running
challenges in the world. Not only will completing this challenge
hopefully help me make a difference to the lives of blind veterans – it will also be a significant personal milestone. 

Those who know me will recall the debilitating back problems/pain
I’ve experienced in the past and at times this made it difficult for me to
walk let alone imagine taking on a challenge like this. Despite
operations in 2003 and 2012 I still get a considerable amount of pain but during my training have found that running actually helps.  However 26.2 miles is still a hefty ask! 

Knowing I’m doing this for Blind Veterans UK and that I have
your support will help keep me determined and focused.

Please donate what you can (and share my page on your social
media channels) to help me make a difference for veterans rebuilding their lives after sight loss.

raised can make a difference visit Veterans' stories - Blind Veterans UK
