Next April 2025, I will be taking part in the Paris Marathon to help fundraise towards NYAS (National Youth Advocacy Service) a special charity I have been working with for the past 4 years.

NYAS supports Care experienced children, young people and vulnerable adults. NYAS care about what children want, say and empower them to get their voices heard.

As part of their mission, they ensure that the wishes and feelings of care-experienced young people are expressed and acted upon. The aim of this is to improve their situation and help them build a better future.

Year upon year the number of children in care continue to increase. Children are often taken into care due to experiencing or at risk of abuse and neglect. Yet, when they enter the care system a lot still do not get the care and support they are entitled to and need!

From working largely with vulnerable children and young people throughout my career, NYAS and their mission is one I am very passionate about.

Therefore, any donations will be hugely appreciated no matter how small! : )
