Flora London Marathon 2009 · 26 April 2009 ·

We’re the only charity fighting to end child abuse in the UK and Channel Islands. That’s why we help children who’ve been abused to rebuild their lives, we protect children at risk, and we find the best ways of preventing child abuse from ever happening.

============

26 miles of Jay, or should that be joy? It's a long way whichever you choose.

I'm running the London Marathon in April 2009 - help me raise money for the NSPCC: they do great work, including sponsoring Childline - a 24 hour free phoneline where children know they will be listened to.

My employer, Sun Microsystems, will double whatever I raise here, so your £20 donation will mean over £40 going to the charity (allowing for gift aid, if you're a UK taxpayer).

Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor me: NSPCC gets your money faster and, if you’re a UK taxpayer, Justgiving makes sure NSPCC gets 25% in Gift Aid, plus a 3% supplement, are added to your donation.

So please sponsor me now!
