Thank you for visiting the fundraising page for 'Team Katie Price!'
Here you can sponsor myself Katie Price and my team of close family and friends – my sister Sophie, my brother Daniel and my close friend Hannah. I will be running the 2011 London marathon to raise money for both of my charities ‘The Vision Charity’ and ‘The Pituitary Foundation’.
Harvey has inspired me to help raise awareness of my chosen charities in their day to day community work, plus their long term goals. It is well documented that my son 'Harvey' suffers from many conditions, and like so many other children who are blind, visually impaired and dyslexic 'The Vision Charity' plays such an important role in helping achieve their full potential and expand their opportunities. Harvey also has problems with his pituitary gland and The Pituitary Foundation offers vital practical and emotional support to adults and families of children such as Harvey, to help empower them on their lifelong journey. The pituitary is a tiny gland at the base of the brain, but it is the conductor of many other hormones in the body including the essential hormones that regulate growth in children, stress response and fluid balance.
As a patron of my two charities, both of which remain close to my heart, I have challenged myself, family and friends to run the Virgin London Marathon 2011 on Sunday April 17th. To help raise funds for vital work within these two hugely important organisations.
I have been training lots with my team and we can’t wait to get involved in the race. Let’s hope it doesn’t rain!!
We also need your support. Please sponsor myself and my team, no matter how big or small your contribution is - every amount helps!
I want to raise a huge sum of money to help The Vision Charity and The Pituitary Foundation on future projects to help as many children as we possibly can who may not be as financially fortunate as Harvey. I know this run is going to be tough and with your support, it will give me the extra motivation and incentive to not let you all down and get over that finishing line!! Eeeek
Once you have donated, please do leave a message below as I will visit this page regularly to read them!
All my love
