My Story

Pauls Story

In April 2026 I will be running the TCS London Marathon to raise money for The spring Centre Trust Fund. 26.2 looooong miles through the streets of London.

Next year I am taking part in this monumental event to raise money for an incredible cause.

Who are The Spring Centre and what do they do?

The Spring Centre is a incredible UK-charity based in Gloucestershire which supports children, young people and their families.

They provide opportunities for children and young people 0-35 yrs with additional needs and disabilities, and their families, to access a tailored programme of activities aimed at improving and enriching quality of life for them all.

How is this connected to me?

Having worked as a care worked for a number of years looking after and caring for young adults with severe learning difficulties. I know first hand how priceless these charities are for enriching and enhancing the life's of these young people. Also how important funding is to such organisations. I can't wait to get stuck in and try to raise as much money as possible for this incredible charity that is close to my heart.

How can you help? 

I have created a Enthuse account. The link will be directly attached to my in instagram running account "paulrunslondon26". If there's anyway you could donate to the wonderful cause it would be greatly appreciated. Also please follow my journey on instagram and share the page if possible. 

What's next? 

So lots of running and training. I have a local half marathon at the end of September so hopefully I get through that in one piece and then 7 months remaining until the big day. Wish me luck and follow my journey on instagram and Strava. 

Thanks in advance
