My Story

Having completed a number of half marathons over the last few years I wanted to challenge myself to a full marathon and would love to raise some money for a charity close to my heart whilst completing it.

Contact is a charity who support families with disabled children all across the UK with vital information, advise and support. I have had the pleasure of teaching many children with disabilities and I know first-hand the difficulty and heart ache of having a disabled child but also the love, joy and special moments it brings too. Isaac was diagnosed with left sided Hemiplegia at 11 months old and has overcome a multitude of hurdles and struggles to get where he is today – he never lets his disability hold him back and I am so proud of how far he has come, and he inspires me to challenge myself and support others.

We ourselves have benefitted from the amazing support Contact provide so please support me in supporting this amazing charity and giving some of the most incredible children and their families a chance to thrive. Any donations, no matter how small. will be greatly received.
