I am aiming to complete the London Marathon and London to Brighton Bike ride in less than 450 minutes!

I will be running the London Marathon for Hailsham Harriers and completing the London to Brighton bike ride as part of a team but both to raise funds for Forward Facing Charity.

Forward Facing intend to use the funds raised by our gang to run events to help and support Dads, Granddads, Brothers, Uncles and Carers.

So often the Male family members supporting a child with cancer, a life limiting illness, or a family bereavement are overlooked and seen as the strong people that are holding it together. But Men’s mental health increasingly is an issue that needs to be acknowledged. Death by suicide is seen as being the biggest killer of men under the age of 50 in the UK.

With Forward Facing's Male focussed events and therapy they intend to do all they can to help and assist this massive issue.
