I'm Running My First Ever Half Marathon for Stripey Stork! 🏃♀️💛
This October, I’m taking on a huge personal challenge: running the Royal Parks Half Marathon through the heart of London - my first ever half marathon! I’m doing it to raise vital funds for an incredible charity: Stripey Stork.
Why Stripey Stork?
Stripey Stork is a brilliant charity that provides essential items for babies and children in families experiencing hardship. From nappies and school uniforms to buggies and books, they ensure children have the dignity and practical support they need to thrive.
Why this challenge?
Running a half marathon is way outside my comfort zone - but every mile I run is for the families who face far bigger challenges every day. If my effort can help raise funds and awareness for Stripey Stork, then every blister will be worth it!
How you can help:
Please consider sponsoring me. Every donation—big or small—will go directly towards helping families in need. If you can’t donate, sharing this page also means the world!
