Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

So can you believe it, me Rebecca Jones running a marathon? A year ago I wouldn't have thought it was possible but it's true! I've been lucky enough to get a place in the London Marathon in 2012! It's going to be quite a challenge but I'm up for it. I have a charity place which means I need to raise £1250 for my chosen charity and this is where I need your support.

I'm running on behalf of a small charity that runs community centres that support families in the area that I live, the London Docklands. As a small charity, every pound really makes a real difference to them.

The money I raise will go towards a project to stop youth reoffending and reduce anti-social behaviour, support a special needs education centre and put playworkers in school playgrounds and a range of other activities that support the local community.

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.
