I'm supporting Shine by taking on the London Marathon in 2025! Shine has supported myself and family since the birth our first born son Bear. Although bear doesn’t have to what many seem any problems visible he has had 2 back operations, constantly undergoing scans and tests for his bladder and physio for all the aches and pains he has in his legs and back.

Bears condition could worsen but we remain positive and from the support of shine i would like to give something back.

Shine provides specialist support from before birth and throughout the life of anyone living with spina bifida and/or hydrocephalus, as well as to parents, families, carers and professional care staff. Shine enables people to get the best out of life. Everything we do is made possible by our generous supporters. Your donation helps individuals and families in your local communities across England, Wales and Northern Ireland. Every donation has the potential for profound impact.

THANK YOU for supporting Shine!
