Disabled people have been one of the hardest-hit groups during the pandemic - 60 per cent of those who died from Covid in 2020 were disabled despite making up 22 per cent of the population.

The voices of disabled people must be heard by putting them at the heart of next year's

Good Afternoon Cottingham. 👋😁👋

We have something exciting to share with you today. One of our own Sense staff members is participating in the London Marathon to raise vital funds for Sense.

Lorenzo (pictured below) is the Shop Manager in our wonderful shop based in Felixstowe. Over the last 2 years Lorenzo has been training for the Manchester Marathon which because of the pandemic was unfortunately cancelled.

But now, as we slowly start to return to some form of normality Lorenzo has continued to train tirelessly for 12 weeks, 6 days a week for the upcoming London Marathon.

With 20 weeks left of training we need your support to help Lorenzo raise as much money as possible for Sense and encourage him to finish his set goal of 3hrs 50minites - that's 30 minutes quicker than his previous personal best. 🏅🏅🏅
If you could be generous enough to donate to Lorenzo's Just Giving Page (link below) to help raise vital funds for Sense which was affected negatively by the impact of the pandemic and lockdowns it would be greatly appreciated. 🙏🙌
We understand that not everyone can donate, so we also asking for you to like and share this post so we can help Lorenzo reach more people through the power of Social Media.

From all of us at Sense Newcastle - Thank you.

You've got this Lorenzo. 💪🏃👏
