Charlotte’s Story

I am from Dagenham ,Essex and have lived there for all my life, I graduated university a year ago where I specialised in Disability Sport. I now work I a mainstream school around the corner from my house where I am a 1-2-1 and help with the Speech and Language Programmes.

I am taking part in the Parallel London 5km. So excited to be racing at the Olympic Park, as I went to the University of East London.

I have a major passion for running and thought what a fantastic opportunity to race at the Olympic Park in my home city. I have run 2 half marathons and a few 5k’s, 10k’s and even two half marathons.

I am supporting BBC Children in Need, as I was lucky enough to gain a place from the ballot that they was advertising.
