Supporter Natalie successfully completes half marathon for VPS

A huge 'well done' and 'thank you' to VPS supporter Natalie Pougher, who took part in the Hever Half Marathon at Hever Castle, Kent on Sunday 8 July 2018 in order to raise funds for the VPS, successfully completing the event despite sweltering weather (apparently 31C on the day!).

If you're interested in making a donation, there's still time to do so if you visit Natalie's fundraising page, where you can also find more details about the event.

You can read more about Natalie's personal journey with vulvodynia on her blog.
