Zara’s page for UP

I’ve chosen to run a half marathon to raise money for UP, a charity that supports adults with cerebral palsy, because it’s a cause that feels especially meaningful to me through my work as a physiotherapist.
As a physio, I see first-hand how much movement, independence and access to the right support can impact someone’s quality of life. UP does such an amazing job of supporting adults with cerebral palsy to stay active, independent and empowered, while helping them access opportunities that can make a real difference to their everyday lives.
I’m incredibly passionate about helping people achieve their goals, whatever their abilities, and I love that UP focuses on making sure adults with cerebral palsy have the support and opportunities they deserve. It’s an amazing charity doing such important work, and I wanted to challenge myself while raising money for an amazing cause.
