On the 27th of April 2025, local hero James Doran completed the London Marathon in order to raise funds for Dressability, after just one year of running. Not only did James achieve a fantastic time of 3:54:37, he also did it in the beating sun. Many involved with Dressability followed his progress with pride, always on the look out out for number 58681!
The extent of sacrifice James has made, training in all weather conditions, is remarkable, as well as his courage to continue after accidently being knocked down within the first 5km. It is as a result of James’ efforts, that he has managed to raise nearly £1,000.
All funds raised from James’ run will enable us to keep on helping those who utilise our service, providing support to clients within our local community as well as nationally through our postal service. Our service transforms everyday clothes into something truly life-changing for people with disabilities and limited dexterity, helping them dress with comfort, independence, and pride.
As a thank you, we presented James with a little gift to acknowledge his efforts and accomplishment. On behalf of everyone at Dressability, thank you James, forever a friend of Dressability.
