Story

Am I daft or am I stupid?  Last year I said "never again" but guess what? Broken foot notwithstanding, I'll be joining the other 25 people running the Great North Run for L'Arche again this year.
 
L'Arche is a great charity, and running 13 miles is definitely worth it to help them do their fantastic work.  They are a brilliant network of communities - real homes for hundreds of people with learning disabilities.  £500 will make a real difference in the lives of people with learning difficulites, such as improving workshop facilities or in buying a minibus.
 
It's easy to donate using Justgiving, and if you're a taxpayer and tick the Gift Aid box L'Arche will get an extra 28% free, gratis and for nothing.
 
Thank you very very much for your support.
