Hi everyone!

Thanks for coming to my page and considering donating to Able Child.

In April I'm taking on the London Marathon. As a first time runner, and notorious disliker of any form of physical discomfort, this is set to be a mega challenge for me!

Having grown up in the developing world and worked for a children's charity in Africa I've seen first had the importance of funding impactful charities.

I'm raising money for Able Child. Able Child works toward a world in which no child with a disability is left behind. They support a network of African organisations to protect, educate and amplify the voices of children and young people with disabilities, so that they are able to thrive.

Please give whatever you're able to to support this fantastic cause, and know I'll push myself to the absolute limit to justify your donation.

Please see an example below about the great work Able Child do, and the children they help:

Children like Juma. Juma is six years old and lives with his mother in Malawi. He was diagnosed with cerebral palsy which is a physical disability that can affect movement and posture, and it also means that communication can sometimes be a challenge. Without the correct support, Juma was in danger of falling behind.

Through our project, in partnership with the Federation of Disability Organisations in Malawi, Juma was introduced to specialist caregivers who better understood the assistance he needed. Juma was helped in communicating his needs and understanding others. Juma began to thrive among his peers, making friends along the way.

We want to support more children like Juma. Donations you make will help them do so.
