Rachel's Life in Lockdown

Life as we know it has been a bit different the past few months and we’ve all had to adapt to a new way of doing things, including fundraising.

While we’ve had to put all events on pause and get creative in our fundraising, one thing has remained constant – the determination of our own team and our amazing supporters.

Supporter Rachel Woodworth was all set to run the Mersey Tunnel 10k in April before the lockdown resulted in all sporting events being cancelled.

Not wanting her training to go to waste and determined to still raise vital funds for our research, Rachel set out on her own modified version of the route and smashed her target, reaching the 10k mark by minute 59.

As well as smashing her personal best running time, Rachel also quadrupled her fundraising goal of £500, with a total of over £2,000.
