My story
Once upon a time, before three kids and the general chaos of life, I used to run a lot. I even ran the Melbourne Marathon! But over the years, running slipped down the priority list. Earlier this year, I decided to get back into it and completed Couch to 5K.
Now I’m going further: training for the Robin Hood Half Marathon.
I’m doing it to raise money for codebar, an organisation that helps people from underrepresented backgrounds get into tech. After switching careers myself, I saw first-hand how tough it can be to break into the industry, so I started and now organise the codebar Nottingham chapter (with some help from some amazing engineers) to help make that path easier for others.
This half marathon is a personal challenge but it’s also about backing a cause I really believe in. If you can support me, I’ll do the running and your donation will help open doors for future developers.
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 Codebar.
