Cheering on Isaac: Leeds Half Marathon

Cheering on Isaac: Leeds Half Marathon for Charlotte Straker House

We are delighted to share that Isaac, a student at Leeds University, will be running the Leeds Half Marathon this May in support of The Charlotte Straker Project.

Isaac has chosen to fundraise for our charity because of a very personal connection. His Grandma was recently diagnosed with terminal oesophageal cancer and has since moved into Charlotte Straker House, a local care home and charity in Corbridge. Like many families, Isaac and his loved ones knew that the move into assisted living would be a significant and emotional step. However, they have been incredibly grateful for the care, kindness, and welcoming environment she has received since arriving.

In Isaac’s own words, Charlotte Straker House has helped his Grandma feel truly at home, with “plenty going on, fantastic caring and attentive staff, and a warm, homely feel.” We are incredibly grateful that he has chosen to take on this challenge as a result of the care and support he has witnessed at our home.

Every pound Isaac raises will go towards our Development Fund, which helps us continue to develop our home and enrich the lives of all our residents. From improving facilities to supporting meaningful activities, these funds make a real and lasting difference.

We will be proudly supporting Isaac throughout his fundraising journey and cheering him on every step of the way in May. His fundraising target is £250, and with your help, we know he can smash it! If you are able to sponsor Isaac’s efforts, no matter how small, your support would mean more than you know to Isaac, his family, and everyone at The Charlotte Straker Project.
