This year I have been given the opportunity to run the London Marathon for a great cause in WellChild Childrens Nurses. This charity helps hundreds of children with each year leave hospital and return home. It provides vital support to allow this to happen for often children with complex care needs.

This will be highlight of my running journey so far and is my 5th marathon.

Currently I am training hard, and hope I can get a PB on the capitals streets!

Anything you can spare to sponsor me would be gratefully received!

Many Thanks,

David

WellChild Childrens Nurses provide essential care and practical support to children and young people requiring long-term or complex care. They play a crucial role in enabling children to leave hospital and be cared for at home, reducing the practical, emotional and financial impact for families.

WellChild is also committed to funding high quality, innovative projects designed to have a positive impact for seriously ill children both now and in the future. This includes WellChilds Helping Hands programme which continues to go from strength to strength, working with volunteers from companies and organisations across the country to tackle essential projects in the homes of children with serious illness. Those volunteers provide the manpower and enthusiasm for projects such as bedroom and garden makeovers.
