My story

I am taking on the massive challenge of running the London Marathon 2025 to help raise money and awareness of Stepping Stones (a small local charity) and the Williams Syndrome Foundation. Both charities have helped support my daughter Amy and all of us as a family over the last 19 years. This year is very special for Stepping Stones who are celebrating their 50th Birthday, so what better way to celebrate than to run not only my first London Marathon but my first Marathon!! Please help me to raise as much money as I can for these two amazing charities. Any help you can give me would be very much appreciated, wish me luck, I think I am going to need it!!


Thank you for checking out my page. Making a donation is fast, easy and secure thanks to Give as you Live Donate. They'll take your donation and pass it onto Stepping Stones-District Specialist Centre For Children With Special Needs and WILLIAMS SYNDROME FOUNDATION LIMITED.

With 6 weeks to go I have been keeping up with my training. I managed 20 miles last weekend and have just completed the equivalent of a half Marathon. Thank you so much to everyone who has donated so far, please continue to share, to help me raise more money for these 2 fantastic charities, that are so close to mine and my families heart.  They have both done so much to help Amy.
