Rani is supporting Disabled kids and running two marathons

I am really honoured and excited to be running both the October Chicago and the November 2021 New York City marathons for Get Kids Going and fundraising for this fantastic charity!

Get kids going is a national charity that supports disabled kids and young people all over the UK and offers home care services to young adults and children with a range of disabilities.

Their aim is to support all budding Paralympians from the UK in the build-up to the 2021 Tokyo Summer Paralympics, the 2022 Beijing Winter Paralympics and many more events. Like any aspiring athletes, all our youngsters need long term support, often over many years, to achieve their sporting dreams.

Get Kids Going support children with all disabilities and from all backgrounds. They take pride in ensuring that any equipment which has been outgrown is recycled to other children, so our supporter's valuable donations are never wasted. Many people who support Get Kids Going! feel a wonderful sense of achievement and satisfaction. They see that even the smallest donation makes an amazing difference! Get Kids Going! gives disabled children and young people the chance of a lifetime, freedom, and many fantastic opportunities that you and I take for granted. Opportunities they may never have had without you and the support of Get Kids Going! No other charity in the UK focuses on helping disabled children and young people with sport in quite the same way.

As you are all aware, donations to UK charities have really dropped during this horrible pandemic and if you can spare a few pounds the money you donate will be put to such good use - all donations are very much appreciated including those that equate to the cost of a cup of coffee – it really helps to support the disabled kids.

I have an ambitious target to reach with my goal of completing the two marathons and raising £2000. Thank you in advance to everyone who donates. Together we can help raise funds for this fantastic charity! It will mean so much to Keep kids Going and the adults and children they support”
