Story

On 1st October 2023, I will go the distance by running my first ever half marathon!

Having not run regularly for a number of year I'm both looking forward too and dreading 🤣 a huge 13 miles & the training to get there!

I am joining Team Blue Light Card Foundation to raise awareness of wellbeing across the Blue Light community which is affected due to frequent exposure to distressing situations, long and unpredictable hours, and significant threats to safety every time they turn up for a shift. 

By supporting the Blue Light Card Foundation, we can give back to those who often put their lives and wellbeing on the line for us.

Please sponsor me today to say thank you to those who are here for us when we need them the most
