Manchester Marathon for Dawn House School

I am running Manchester Marathon in aid of Dawn House school.

Dawn House is a day and residential school supported by Speech and Language UK, they support people aged 5-19 with complex speech and language challenges that are barriers to learning.

For 1.9 million children in the UK learning to talk and understand words feels like an impossible hurdle, Speech and Language UK give children and young people the skills they need so they are not left behind waiting to be understood.

My brother, who is an ex-pupil, has greatly benefitted from the incredible support and nurturing environment Dawn House School provides for children with speech and language difficulties. I’ve witnessed firsthand the dedicated staff and tailored programs that help students gain confidence and develop vital communication skills.

The funds I raise will go towards essential therapies, resources and engaging activities that help students flourish. By participating in the marathon I aim to give back to a school that has changed lives and help to ensure that more children can receive the high quality support they need to thrive.
