My Story

Hi, I’m Harry, 23, from Leeds, and I’m excited to be taking on my first and hopefully not the last marathon. As a laminator at MPM, I’m on my feet all day, making sure our products are top quality. While that keeps me active, running a marathon is a whole new level of challenge.

 

I’m running in support of Henshaw’s, a charity that’s very close to me. They support people living with sight loss and other disabilities, helping them lead fulfilling lives beyond what’s expected. Currently, they’re working on The Secret Garden Appeal, aiming to raise £500k to build new workshops and provide 200 additional creative sessions every week.

 

Taking part in physical challenges for charity is not the first for me, last year, I and some of our team from MPM took part in the Yorkshire Three Peakschallenge. Now, I’m channelling that same energy into this solo marathon. I’m proud to be supporting such an important cause, and I’m grateful for all the support I’ve received so far. I will be sharing some of my runs, updates and stories leading up to the marathon on this page and the Henshaw’s page on Facebook here, along with the MPM LinkedIn page here.
