Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page. My name is Jon Harris, I am a primary school teacher in Bradford. I am a keen runner and have run the London marathon 3 times before, raising over £4000 for charity. I am a terrible guitar player and a big Bradford Bulls fan, but please don't let that put anyone off sponsoring me!

I am running the London Marathon on 25th April 2010 and the Edinburgh Marathon on 23rd May 2010.

I wanted to raise money for a charity in the area where I live and found Bradford Nightstop, a small charity that provides emergency accomodation for homeless people aged 16-25. Volunteers accomodate the young people in their homes on a one night at a time basis. This charity, like so many others around the country, is staffed by hard-working volunteers, and every penny of the money you donate will go to help, for example £1000 would pay for 44 nights of accommodation and travel for young people. The charity are always on the look out for more volunteers who could offer help in any capacity. www.bradfordnightstop.org.uk

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.

So please dig deep and donate now.
