We’re Alvaro and Ana, and we’ve been proud volunteers with Stripey Stork for over a year and a half. Since moving to Earlswood four years ago, we’ve found real purpose in giving our time to support local families through this amazing charity. Being so passionate about family matters, it means a lot to us to help other families facing challenging circumstances.

One of the things we love doing together is running—so taking part in this half marathon to raise funds for Stripey Stork is the perfect way to combine two things we care deeply about: giving back and staying active.

We’re aiming to raise as much as we can to support Stripey Stork’s essential work, and we’re also setting ourselves personal time goals: Alvaro is aiming to run under 1h40’, and I’m aiming for under 1h45’. Training is officially underway, and we’re giving it our all—on and off the track!

Thank you so much for your support. Every donation, big or small, helps make a real difference to families in our community.
