Hey Guys!
I am running the London Marathon in April 2011 with my friend Victoria. We are running in aid of a charity called SPARKS - the children's medical research charity. Sparks is a great charity to sponsor as its aim is to help all babies to be born healthy and grow up healthy as they fund research across the whole spectrum of paediatric medicine. Their research and medicine helps to prevent risks associated with premature births and also childhood cancer, arthiritis, meningitis and spina bifida. These are just a few areas where Sparks doctors and scientists are leading the race to save lives.
Victoria and I have done a lot together over the years. In the attached photos you will see the two of us aged five holding hands at a school sports day. Since then activities together have included abseiling down from the top of Twickenham Rugby Stadium as well as running half marathons for charity, helping disabled children to learn to ride and we have even been trekking in Nepal as a part of the Duke of Edinburgh Gold Award.
My Dad's Company, The Original Poster Company Limited, is sponsoring Victoria and I and has kindly agreed to match all donations pound for pound up to a minimum of £2,500 each. So, please be generous and let's try to make a real difference in the fight to save some precious young lives!
Every little helps!!!!
Thank you, we appreciate it.
