Ultra Marathon Runner to challenge the Sahara Desert for local charity
Experienced marathon runner, Chris Eade, is taking on the ultimate challenge of completing two consecutive marathons over two days in the Moroccan Sahara Desert in October 2016.
Chris, the son of Home-Start West Dorset Trustee Dr Ruth Eade, has already completed several ultra marathons raising crucial funds for various charities. Explaining why he has chosen to support Home-Start, Chris said “As a father who recognises the importance of stable family life to the well-being of children, I consider it a privilege to contribute to this charity which has a successful track-record in supporting young families”
Home-Start West Dorset are delighted and honoured that Chris has chosen to support the charity this year and request that everyone considers supporting Chris by donating on his Just Giving page: www.justgiving.com/fundraising/ChrisEadeSahara4HomeStart
