I’ve not been hacked!

For those of you who know me, don’t worry I’ve not been hacked! I really have signed up, with my good friend Andy, for a 44 mile run along the Normandy beaches on the 80th anniversary of D-Day. 

It’ll be a personal challenge but more importantly I hope I can raise some money that’ll make a real difference to soldiers, sailors and flyers who have served their country and suffered long term effects as a result. 

Support my D-Day Challenge

In honour of our forefathers as well as current servicemen who have bravely fought to protect our way of life, I will be taking on the D-Day Challenge to raise vital funds for life-changing mental health treatment for veterans.

The D-Day 44 Challenge commemorates the 1944 Allied invasion of occupied France. I will be heading to Normandy, to race across its picturesque beaches, finishing at the historic Pegasus Bridge on the 80th anniversary of D-Day, 6 June 2024.

Combat Stress is the UK's leading charity for veterans' mental health. For over a century, they've helped former servicemen and women deal with issues like trauma, anxiety, depression and post-traumatic stress disorder. Today, they provide support to veterans from every service and every conflict.

I’m taking on D-Day Challenge to help take vital strides towards ensuring veterans can get the support they need.

Thank you so much for your support.
