Friends of St Mary's School Support Group

PR expert to promote London Marathon Fundraiser for Brilliant Rural School

A lovely parent at our brilliant school is running the London Marathon 2025 to raise mega-money for the school, especially for children with special educational needs and disabilities (SEND). He has been so impressed with how our staff have helped his profoundly disabled son settle into the school and thrive that he wants to give something back.

The child is 5 years old and delightful. SEND is very much in the news now and we need a PR expert to help us make his campaign have a big reach and impact, locally, regionally in Suffolk and even nationally. Can you help?

One particular staff member here will help you, and the Headteacher and SENDCo support us fully. The ultimate aim is to get the issues in the media and to raise maximum funds for the school.
