Local man, Ian Shawcross (son of our very own Mrs. Shawcross) is currently in the middle of his annual fundraiser challenge month, by running five 10km runs around well known parts of Liverpool. His runs so far have taken him along the waterfront, around the two football grounds and Everton Park.

The fundraiser is to help promote and raise money for a support group that Ian helps to run, for parents who have been affected by the diagnosis of anencephaly during pregnancy. The support group itself is hosted by a charity called SHINE which helps those affected by neural tube defects such as spinabifida and hydrocephalus.

If you would like to donate then please visit Ian’s Just Giving page. He is currently £80 away from his target of £500!
