My Story

Our good friends Sarah and Darren have a beautiful daughter called Poppy who is fab, inspiring and makes us laugh . Unfortunately Poppy was born with Cystic Fibrosis.

We are a couple of builders from Sussex who regularly run together and often work with Poppys dad Darren. It was over a cup of tea one morning that he explained the phenomenal costs of Cystic Fibrosis research and subsequent treatment . He went on to talk about the day to day implications for Poppy living with the disease and the never ending need for more research funding.

We decided we had to do something , so we put down our mugs of lukewarm builders tea and resolved to take a swing at this horrible disease with whatever sledgehammer we had in the toolbox. That sledgehammer turned out to be the London Marathon. Please help us swing that sledge a little bit harder!

We know times are tough for all at the moment but please donate what you can.It would help us two middle aged men struggle round 26.2miles and we would be eternally grateful. Help us to help Poppy and the thousands like her by raising as much as we possibly can. 

Many thanks
