I'm going to be taking part in the Manchester Half Marathon on 26th May to raise money for a charity that is very close to my heart.

Cruse Bereavement Support Isle of Man offer support to young people and adults who have been bereaved, helping people through very painful times.

Cruse Bereavement provided me with the most amazing support after losing my dad at 8 years old. They provided a safe haven in a time that felt very chaotic and gave me the opportunity to meet other children who were also experiencing grief, which let me know I was not alone.

Sadly, we never know when we might be in need of this support and therefore any donation no matter how big or small would be massively appreciated to help the selfless volunteers at Cruse Bereavement carry on doing the amazing job that they do!
