📆Upcoming Events
🏃♂️➡️Dale’s Manchester Marathon for Charity – Sunday, April 19th
Our very own Dale is taking on the Manchester Marathon, running 26.2 miles to raise money for families affected by addiction. Every stride helps support Dilemma’s mission of offering real support to loved ones facing this challenge.
A message from Dale –
“Back in September, I was two weeks from running the Chester Marathon when I fractured my leg. After a lot of hard work to regain my fitness, I’m now ready in two
weeks’ time to run the Manchester Marathon. It will be my 44th race in 10 years and my 8th Marathon, one week before my 63rd birthday. I will be running in the memory
of my friend Tina King and also raising money for Dilemma. If you wish to sponsor me, please use the link on this message. Thank you to everyone who has donated so far.”
