VIDEO: Film star Warwick Davis comes to Louth to support Richard in his charity crusade
The charity was cofounded by Samantha and Warwick, who is the patron and recently celebrated its fourth birthday helps. The charity was set up to help people with dwarfism and their families.
Richard met Sam when she was living in Louth as the pair went to school together and couldn’t think of a better charity to raise funds for as he trains to take on the ultimate slog of a 26-mile course around the capital.

Sam said: “We are delighted that Richard has chosen LPUK as his charity and will proudly wear the charity’s logo on his shirt for the marathon.
“We could not operate and provide essential help to people with dwarfism without fund raisers like Richard, and for that we are truly grateful.”
Patron Warwick explained: “This charity is one of the closest causes to me as I see my wife Sam work hard to make life better for others on a daily basis.
