Why run for us in the Berlin Marathon?

By supporting Make-A-Wish UK and becoming a #WishHero in the Berlin Marathon, you'll be transforming lives for children like Dewi, from Powys. Dewi wished 'to have a driving experience at the Nürburgring Race Track' - his wish was made possible because of #WishHeroes like you.
