Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it’s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

I will be taking part in a 10K run on the 21st April 2013 for the Children's Hospital Charity. 

Rafi Solaiman is the nephew of a very close family friend of mine. A boy of only 12 years of age, in the November of 2012, he had a sudden brain hemmorhage and his family was told that there was a high chance he would not survive the emergency surgery. Thanks to the hard work of the hospital and the charity, he survived and is making his little steps towards recovery, with his family. There have been some serious complications, including another brain hemorrhage, but he is simply amazing! So so so cute as well. What a kid. His sisters have decided to participate in this run to raise money for the Children's Hospital Charity, as they were (and still are!) very supportive and saved his life. I've decided to join them.

Please donate generously, as if you know me, I am awful at running! and the cause is greater than my words could describe. 

Thank you.
