Testimonial
Liam took part in an Iron Man comp, raising $11,000 along the way!
Liam said on choosing to fundraise for Variety "I've always thought because I am able-bodied, I could support those who might not be, in particular, kids. It's hard to be a parent, and when you're faced with challenges that Variety kids and families are experiencing, this would be even harder."
Liam has a powerful message for Variety kids: "I want you to know that you are not alone, that there are people out there that are behind you. It might be tough, but it doesn't mean it's a no. It doesn't mean that you can't."
