Story

The Sue Lambert Trust. A Norfolk charity, close to my heart, with whom in my opinion, quite frankly, save lives.

So having wanted to raise money for this INCREDIBLE charity for quite some time now, I have signed myself up to run a HALF MARATHON (21.1K) on the 20th October.

To some, this may not seem like a grandeur challenge, however for me, who at the time of writing this, cannot currently run 5k and have in recent years, experienced a few back injuries, it is very much a challenge for me & a mindset obstacle to overcome.

Some of the amazing counsellors at the Sue Lambert Trust are volunteers and have been providing professional support to people for over 40 years. They provide a safe, secure, non-judgmental place where you are heard, seen, and supported and I would love nothing more than to raise as much money as possible for these incredible humans.

Unfortunately Sue Lambert’s services remain in high demand, therefore any donation you’re able to give would be VERY much appreciated & would mean a great deal to me and I’m sure, the incredible team at the trust.

If you’re unable to donate, I would be super grateful if could share this fundraising page, as I would love to create as much exposure for the trust as possible.

I plan to post updates of my training journey for my own personal motivation, but also in the hope it might inspire others to step out of comfort zones or face obstacles they feel are standing in their way.

‘Just’ sharing this challenge, is me facing one of mine.

A final word….to anyone that feels they could potentially benefit from support from the Sue Lambert Trust. Please reach out to them when you feel ready. They are the kindest souls with the biggest hearts and could provide you with a valuable tool kit for navigating life beyond trauma. You don’t have to fight it alone 💜

Let the running journey commence 💪🏼

Thank you 🩷
