NINE!

Completing my 8th London Marathon for the TAVS last April was something else...

Incredibly tough of course, amazing to have my two sons near the finish line and the level of support and encouragement in the form of donations, getting on for £2,500.00 made it one to remember. Also, somehow I was fitter than when I did my first one 10 years go?

Since that first rodeo, my understanding of how the Lord’s Taverners use the money raised in this event to change lives, to bring happiness and progression by putting exercise, health and competition in young hearts has grown so much. 

Most recently that centres on Khayam Nawaz. This hero is the Head Coach of the Wicketz hub in Luton, my hometown, where top notch sessions are delivered FOR FREE to many many children throughout the year in mostly South Asian communities. The Lord’s Taverners fund this and your money, hopefully lots of it, will contribute to this roaring success.

SO I AM LOOKING TOWARD THE START LINE ALL OVER AGAIN... Sunday April 27th 2025 and I need to once again ask you to donate; to find £20, £30 or £50 to drop here and in return I am doing my bit by putting my body through the ringer in training and on the day.

SEND MONEY PLEASE 🙏🏻
……………………………………………….

On a personal note, thank you and I really really appreciate any contribution, support or well wishes.

Life could be so much harder… we are lucky… with a reasonably healthy body, we can put it to work to benefit others and smile wide whilst doing it. I put myself in the shoes of the children that the TAVS help country-wide and it is more fuel for the fire, so many young girls and boys need support like this and whilst this is not a life & death charity, it’s still so so important and deserves attention.

Let’s rock and roll!
