We would like to thank this superstar Chris!!! Chris raised an amazing £1,375.06 by running 50 miles in just one day for Strongbones in memory of Holly Smallman.
“I’m so thrilled that I picked Strongbones to support when I decided on this crazy idea to run 50 miles in one day!!!
My good friends Hayley and Gary tragically lost their little girl Holly during the pandemic but previously to this I would often hear them talking so fondly of Strongbones and how much of a difference they had made to Holly’s life.
Holly had complex medical health needs and required 24-hour care but she also needed a lot of specialist equipment to enable Holly to live her life to the best that she could.
This is were the incredible Strongbones stepped in and granted lots of specialist equipment at different stages of Holly’s life.
Hayley told me that the last big celebration that they all went too as a family was a Strongbones party and it sounded wonderful, it was a true sensory experience for Holly and all the family. Hayley says that she will cherish these memories forever now.
This is why there was only one charity that I could run for as I’d seen first-hand what invaluable help they had been to my friends.”
