Story

Hi all!

I'm taking on London Landmarks Half Marathon on Sunday 6th April 2025.

I'm running 21km (13.1 miles) in aid of a wondeful charity - Whizz Kidz!

Most of children under 5 years old would not be able to access the mobility equipment that meets their needs through local services (NHS does not provide them).

It leaves them with three (or realistically one!) options: being pushed around by their parents in a pram/buggy, dragging themselves across the floor, sitting in one spot where they've sat by their parents and doing nothing.

It takes away their dignity, independence and all of the fun and enjoyment they should have while they explore the world around them!

As a mother to a very active 4 year old it absolutely broke my heart!

I've learned that It cost around £1300 to provide a child with specially adapted mobility trike.

Please help me raise enough funds to change a life of a one child. Together we can make a difference!

Thank you!

Alex ❤️
