Completed and £4,158 raised!

 

On Saturday 1st May 2021Heidi Cochrane and her family will be walking the 26.3 mile Kiltwalk marathon. Please help make their day – and ours – and support them if you can.

We’re walking for Parathyroid UK who have helped my brother with his rare autoimmune disease. His life has been prolonged because of their help.
