Charity
The Prince’s Foundation for Children and the Arts is an educational charity which provides access for young people who would otherwise grow up having had no, or very limited opportunity, to engage with the arts. Through the work of The Prince's Foundation for Children and the Arts children learn that cultural venues are welcoming, accessible and exciting places to visit. It seeks to foster in them a lifelong love of the arts.

Allie Jones's fundraising page
Hey lovelies,
As most of you now know - I DID IT! I ran 13.1 miles for a charity I'm massively passionate about and could burst I am so proud! The whole experience has been really overwhelming.
I signed up for the Royal Park Foundation Half Marathon whilst having an "I've achieved nothing this year" crazy breakdown and here I am a couple of months later having achieved it. I'm not going to lie, it was hard, really hard! I struggled from 11 miles, exhausted, with burning legs and a blister and genuinely didn't think I'd finish it (you all know how much of a drama queen I am, so yes there were tears!). Despite all this I did finish it, not only did I complete it but I finished in a decent time - 2 hours 24 minutes!
Two days later and my legs are still throbbing, but I am so close to reaching my sponsor target which makes it all seem so worthwhile.
Thank you ALL for your support, I am so so grateful!
Love and hugs, Allie xx
