Helping a local charity is something that has been on my bucket list for a very long time, so when this opportunity came along I was more than willing to take on this challenge.
I have worked with young people with disabilities for four years as a support worker and freelance dance teacher and I feel very lucky because I am doing a job I love.
I work with and care for some amazing children and young people and I couldn't think of a better way to help support them.
Sunshine and Smiles are a great charity and they do amazing things for children and young people with Down syndrome. So to help them keep their services running I will be taking part in the Leeds Half Marathon on Sunday 14th May and the Leeds 10K on Sunday 9th July.
I am hoping to rise as much money as possible so every donation is appreciated!!
