Story

Hello Friends and Family,

Now is my time to push my limits further than I ever have done before, and to become a sub 4 hour marathon runner.

I will be running for 2 charities that are very close to my heart. Many of you will be familiar with jewish care, and the fantastic work they carry out for the community. They have been a huge part of many of our lives, and we probably all know somebody that they have helped in life changing ways. On a personal level they have been invaluable in supporting my family and providing care for my late grandparents.

The second charity is Behind Every Kick (BEK). BEK aims to create equal opportunities for young people from disadvantaged backgrounds by training them in leadership and life skills through their passion of sport. In addition, it aims to boost self-worth and confidence by providing young people with the skills that they learn though the training sessions provided by BEK. I believe that every child deserves a chance to succeed in life, regardless of their background, and I am committed to doing my part to support this worthy cause. However, I cannot do this alone....

I am reaching out to you all to ask for your help and support in sponsoring me for this marathon (and I will ensure to run my fastest!)

Every penny makes a difference to me but more importantly to the lives of those I hope to help with your generosity.

All your support is just phenomenal and I know will carry me through.

Thank you so much in advance.

Lots of love,

POLLY x
