4 half marathons for 'FAB'

Fabian was just 12 years old when he passed away in 2005 due to type 1 diabetes complications.

Danny Sandison from Shetland has completed four half marathons to raise money for The Fabian Peter Rhys Richardson tribute fund

Fabian tragically died due to type 1 diabetes complications at the age of 12 years old. Danny's fundraising efforts have raised a total of £2,112.50 to the 'FAB fund', set up in his honour by his family.

The total amount raised so far has reached a very special £18,943.65.

Danny originally signed up to the Glasgow marathon as his event of choice but ended up signing for the Perth, Peterhead and Edinburgh half marathons too. He called them the 'Four4Fab'.

“I was really happy with my running times which improved with each race, but was even more delighted to raise so much money to support people living with diabetes."

"I originally set a target of £500 so to raise four times that is fantastic.”

With Danny's support and everyone who has done so much in memory of Fabian we can strive for a world where diabetes can do no harm.

Thank you Danny.
