I have made a late entry into the Great Birmingham Run Half-Marathon on 21st October 2012.

I am running to raise money for COPS (Care of Police Survivors) in light of the tragic events of 18/09/2012 when PC Nicola Hughes and PC Fiona Bone were murdered on duty serving Greater Manchester Police. This charity provides support for the grieving families who have lost their loved ones in the line of duty.

For the Fallen

They shall grow not old,
as we that are left grow old:

Age shall not weary them,
nor the years condemn.

At the going down of the sun
and in the morning

 We will remember them.
