Glen's Half Marathon in Support of his Nephew Freddie
Glen's nephew Freddie lives with Neurofibromatosis and in the next week alone Freddie will have to attend 8 hospital appointments yet through all this, he would never show that he suffers or that he is unhappy.
Glen has been inspired to fundraise in support of nephew, who is constantly playing, smiling and laughing.
Glen and Freddie

Despite everything Freddie has been through he never fails to put a smile on his uncle's face whether that be making him laugh as the families "Personal Comedian" or even just picking up his uncle's favourite treat from his visit to shop. Freddie is a kind considerate young boy who clearly shares a special bond with his uncle!

Glen will not be running alone however as Rozzie will be joining him in raising money in support of Freddie!
