About Me:

I’m taking on the Mega Miles Challenge in support of the Charity for Civil Servants. As most of my colleagues know, when I first joined the department I was a wheelchair user with limited mobility due to severe pain. Now, post therapy, I am able to walk again confidently, without pain or discomfort, for the first time in 10 years. When I heard of the opportunity to raise money for charity whilst pushing my own development with walking unassisted again, I knew this was something I could really give my all to.

About the charity:

The Charity for Civil Servants supports current, former and retired civil servants when they face tough times. From mental health struggles and financial assistance to relationship issues, getting through grief, and coping with disability, they’re here to help people stay strong, whatever life brings.

Testimonial: 

"When we didn't know who to turn to, the Charity was our life raft. We grabbed onto it when we felt like we didn't have anything to hold onto. It gave us answers to a question when we didn't have the answer ourselves... and it was so important to have that support at the time."
Graham

They’ve been there for civil servants for nearly 140 years, providing an umbrella of support when it’s needed most and so I'm fundraising to make sure they can be there for future generations too.
