MUM Helen Scahill, whose baby attends the Jigsaw nursery, in Pipers Way,will be running the London Marathon this weekend to raise money for the NSPCC.
Children at the nursery will help by staging a sponsored run of their own on Monday.
Nursery manager, Sam Adams said: "Helen has raised over £1,000 already and despite her asthma she's hoping to complete her first marathon in five hours 30 minutes.
"We're really happy to be able to support this worthy cause by holding our fun run which I'm sure the children will really enjoy."
