The London Marathon is one of the most prestigious marathons in the world, attracting some of best athletes and runners in the world (such as Stephen Kiprotich and Mo Farah) and totals a distance of a gruelling 26.2 miles through some of London's most famous landmarks.
Each year the Scout Association helps 400,000 young people in the UK enjoy new adventures; to experience the outdoors; interact with others, gain confidence and have the opportunity to reach their full potential. Scouts develop skills including teamwork, time management, leadership, initiative, planning, communication, self-motivation, cultural awareness, and commitment.

Kash has been involved in a number of fundraising events to date and has even picked up media coverage in local papers in order to help raise funds for the Scout Association
