Story

Hello my name is Marc and welcome to my just giving page!

I am running the Run Bournemouth half marathon on behalf of Diverse Abilities. Diverse Abilities are a Dorset based charity supporting children and adults with profound learning and physical disabilities

I have been a runner on and off for the past 5 years and felt that the time was right to push myself and set a goal that I did not think would ever be possible.

If you can please donate anything for Diverse Abilities that would be very much appreciated! I have an example of one of many of the services that the charity provide

‘The Beehive is a day activity and therapy centre. It's a lively and sociable setting for adults with disabilities. Its a place where people can meet and make new friends, acquire new skills, and enjoy a wide range of experiences.

The Beehive Centre emphasises choice, flexibility, and spontaneity; each day offers a variety of activities for people to participate in as part of a group or on an individual basis. These include music, arts and crafts, cookery, gardening, fitness training, swimming, drama, and a community café.

If you want to follow my progress on this journey then you can support me on Strava and giving me kudos!
