Jade’s goal for Children 1st

An Edinburgh woman is encouraging others to take part in the Great North Run in aid of the charity Children 1st.

Jade Roy, 38, from Davidsons Mains, is halfway through her fundraising feat of running four half marathons for the charity, which helps vulnerable children and their families.

The mother-of-two, who was fostered as a child herself, is aiming to raise more than £1000 for the charity.
