Alys’ Family

Janet and her sister Susan took on the Caerphilly 10k in honour of Janet’s granddaughter Alys who has biliary atresia, raising a wonderful £500. Alys and her twin Grace were there to cheer them on along with their mum Heidi and dad Ian who also ran the London Marathon this year and raised over £2,000. What a fantastic fundraising family!

Pumps & Gearboxes Ltd

The Pumps & Gearboxes Team made up of Jamie Ford, James Stringer, Chris Barker, Pav Vatani, Chris Long and Steve Gill had a great time taking on the Gung Ho 5k, an exciting inflatable obstacle course. They raised a wonderful £600 for CLDF in honour of lovely little Ada (pictured) and her mum Emma.

Bilton Infant School

A big thank you to the fantastic team of children, parents and staff from Bilton Infant School who fearlessly took part in a mini mud run challenge. Inspired by Eleanor Brinkley, they braved the cold and raised a fantastic £1,315 for CLDF.

Rally Round for Reid

Samantha and her friend Steve decided to do a skydive for CLDF, after Samantha and her husband Alex welcomed their gorgeous twin boys Reid and Eldon into the world last year. Reid was diagnosed with biliary atresia and was their inspiration for supporting CLDF. Since then, their family and friends have rallied round and helped raised an incredible £3,125!

Lacey Walker

Inspired by her goddaughter Lara, Lacey took on the Potters Arf Marathon earlier this year and raised an amazing £1,105 for other children and families affected. Lara even joined Lacey for the last stretch of the run!

Rosalind Howell

Ros Howell took to the streets of Chicago in May to run a 10K with her son James in memory of her daughter Catherine. The family have already raised over £730 and she is returning to the Great Lakes in the autumn with her husband David to do a half marathon!
