Story

Hello All

Ollie, Joe and I have decided to run the London marathon for the wonderful Galloway's, as this is a charity close to our hearts, supporting blind people in the North West. Zach has started getting involved with the charity, having taster days doing goalball and VI tennis etc, but more funding is needed to support this charity further and get more accessible sports available for visually imparied people like Zach.

I (Leah) am definitely not a runner and having had a baby in Feb 2024 this is a HUGE challenge for me, so every penny donated will really help get me over that finish line in April 2025!

Joe started running in lockdown and has decided to take on this challenge and push himself to complete a marathon!

Ollie has decided to take this challenge to another level and will be cycling 200 miles down to London the day before completing the marathon! (Crazy but all for a great cause!)

Any support you can give will be greatly appreciated!

Thanks, Leah, Ollie and Joe
