I'm fundraising for...

Make-A-Wish® UK grant life-changing wishes for thousands of critically ill children across the UK. Sadly, the number of wish enquiries from seriously ill children with less than a year to live is rising fast. They need help to meet this urgent demand now - before it’s too late. For families with critically ill children, every day counts. Your support has the power to make a wish come true for a critically ill child, allowing families to create lasting memories that they will treasure forever – no matter what the future holds.

🏃‍♂️ Running for a Dream: My Great North Run Challenge for Make-A-Wish Foundation! 🌟

Hey there, amazing people!

I’ve got something exciting to share – this year, I’m lacing up my running shoes and taking on the iconic Great North Run, all in the name of an incredible cause: the Make-A-Wish Foundation! 🎉

Now, I’m sure you’re wondering… why on earth would I voluntarily sign up to run 13.1 miles? I mean, that's half a marathon – a challenge for even the most seasoned runners! Well, I’ll tell you why: It’s all for the kids. 💖

The Make-A-Wish Foundation makes magical wishes come true for children who are battling life-threatening illnesses. Think about it – a child's wish to go to Disney, meet their hero, or have a once-in-a-lifetime experience can bring them joy and hope when they need it most. 💫

What’s the Goal? 🎯

  • I’m aiming to raise £300 to help Make-A-Wish continue this incredible work. And here’s the best part: every single penny you donate goes directly to granting these wishes. So when you sponsor me, you’re not just supporting my sweaty, achy legs – you’re giving children the chance to dream big and escape from the daily battles they face. 🏆

Why the Great North Run? 🏅

Well, apart from the fact that it’s one of the world’s most famous half-marathons (and, let’s face it, the chance to run through the streets of Newcastle with thousands of other runners sounds pretty epic), this event is a perfect opportunity to challenge myself and raise as much money as possible. The energy of the crowd, the buzz of the race, and the spirit of people running for causes like Make-A-Wish – it’s all going to be absolutely electric. ⚡

How You Can Help! 💪

It’s simple! Whether you’re a runner, a supporter, or just someone who believes in the power of dreams, you can make a difference. Here’s how:

  1. Donate! Any amount helps – whether it’s £5, £10, or more. Every donation counts. 💵

  2. Share the Page! Help spread the word. The more people who know, the more wishes we can grant! 📢

  3. Send Me Virtual High Fives! Seriously, I’ll need all the encouragement I can get on race day! 🖐️

Let’s Do This! 🏃‍♀️💨

Together, we can make a huge impact, and together, we can change lives. I’m ready to tackle this challenge head-on, knowing that with every step, we’re bringing joy, hope, and a smile to some very special kids.

Thanks for your support – whether you donate, share, or just cheer me on from the sidelines, it means the world. 💖

Let’s make some wishes come true!
