I'm taking part in the Manchester Great Run 10km using my Active User Wheelchair, in may 2023. I'm doing this challenge in aid of Your Space, a great local charity that has been a great support to my family for several years. I just want to do my bit to support them, especially in these challenging times.
This is the second race I'm doing at Great Run Manchester 2023. I'm also doing the half marathon on the same day. This will hopefully show how important it is to me to raise for Your Space.
Anything you donate will be gratefully received and put to good use.
