It’s a tribute, a call to action, and a heartfelt show of solidarity from two remarkable boys — Cooper and Huxley — who’ve been best friends since reception and are now finishing their final year of primary school. Together, they’ve decided to take a stand and make a difference.
On Saturday 26th April, 11-year-old Cooper will run the London Mini Marathon, taking on the challenge solo in honour of a cause close to both their hearts
On Saturday, June 7th, Cooper and Huxley will not only run a 10k together but have also organised a fundraising event afterwards—all in support of the Barnaby Webber Foundation.
They chose this foundation with the full support of Barnaby’s family, moved deeply by the tragic events in Nottingham in 2023. Their mission is to honour Barnaby’s memory and the values he lived by. Barnaby Webber, a kind and talented 19-year-old student, was tragically killed in a senseless and unprovoked stabbing while walking home in Nottingham.
Like Barnaby, Cooper and Huxley are passionate about sport, inclusion, teamwork, and friendship. These shared values lie at the heart of the Barnaby Webber Foundation, making it a cause that truly speaks to them.
Cooper and Huxley are doing something extraordinary — not just for their age, but for any age.
Please consider supporting their efforts. Every donation, however big or small, helps carry forward Barnaby’s legacy and uplift young lives.
