Story

Thank you so much for stopping by!

In July 2016 I will be undertaking my most arduous challenge ever in aid of The Princes Trust. I will be completing 40 marathons in 40 consecutive days in the 40th Anniversary year of The Trust.

The Princes Trust, set up by Prince Charles, helps disadvantaged young people struggling at school or unemployed & at risk of exclusion to get their lives back on track.  Many of the young people helped by The Prince’s Trust are in or leaving care, facing issues such as homelessness or mental health problems, or they have been in trouble with the law.   The Trust’s programmes give vulnerable young people the practical and financial support needed to stabilise their lives, helping develop self-esteem and skills for work. THIS MATTERS TO YOU AND ME because it influences the world we live in, the world our kids will inherit. Three in four young people supported by The Prince’s Trust move into work, education or training.

I have set a crazy target, for a crazy effort. I am doing it so you don't have to! but please. help by donating. i aim to raise £1m by the end of August 2016. I have no idea how i will accomplish this challenge, but i know I will because its that important.

Share this with your friends. Donate generously. Wish me luck!
