Local runner, Emma Weskin, is completing a mega challenge for SWALLOW charity – she is aiming to run 12 half marathons in 12 months.

So far she has completed 10 half marathon runs and even though she has had to have an operation which has set her training back, she is determined to complete the challenge.

To date she has raised more than £600 towards SWALLOW’s work supporting teenagers and adults with learning disabilities and hopes that by the end of the year this total we have risen even further. If you would like to support Emma, go to: https://www.justgiving.com/fundraising/Weskin2021

Bev Craney, SWALLOW’s Chief Executive said: “We are so grateful to Emma for all her hard work running and fundraising, this year has been so tough for everyone, but Emma has helped us to continue to provided much needed support to our members by raising so much money. If you are able to support her in her challenge, that would be amazing.”

If you are inspired by Emma and would like to run in next year’s Bath Half Marathon for SWALLOW, we have seven places left! To find out more about this and the work that SWALLOW does, please visit: www.swallowcharity
