Hi, I'm Kayleigh!
This year, I’m challenging myself to run the Hull 10K in support of Age UK Hull & East Yorkshire (HEY).
I’ve never been a runner, and this is a huge step in my fitness journey—but I’m determined to push myself for such an important cause! Since joining the charity in November, I’ve seen firsthand the incredible work they do and just how essential their services are for older people in our community.
Many don’t realize that Age UK HEY is a local, independent charity—and while 40% of their services receive funding, the rest rely entirely on donations, grants, and fundraising to keep going. Older people are often overlooked and forgotten, yet they are some of the most vulnerable members of our society.
This 10K will be the ultimate challenge for me, but knowing it’s making a difference will keep me going. Will you help me support this amazing cause?
