Having raised £38,000 for North Norfolk charities by running the London Marathon in 2021, this year I'm running the marathon once again, to raise money for 26 local charities, including Norfolk Community Foundation's 'Supporting Ukraine in Norfolk' Fund.
Thank you to everyone who nominated a charity this year - 40 charities based or working in North Norfolk were nominated and I joined Julia and Lisa at the amazing Holt Youth Project to draw out the final list of 25 charities! This year's charities, for which I'll be raising £1,000 each, are:
