Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

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.

As some of you maybe aware in two weeks I am due to run a half marathon (gulp)!!

Some of you may also be aware that since the end of May and my last charity run I have been unable to run due to injury. However, as some of you also know when I am determined to do something it is very difficult to persuade me otherwise! I will always regret it if I don't at least try to do this, so have decided to at least give it a go!

This is where you guys come in. To make it all seem worthwhile I need to raise as much money as I can, I appreciate this is the third time I have asked for donations this year and I know times is hard! If you could all just sponsor me a small amount it would soon mount up and make a real difference to the people that really need it.

So please, please dig as deep as you can and help a clapped out old woman raise as much as she can for this very worthwhile cause! I promise this is my last time of asking (this year)!

If you want to come along and support me or just have a laugh at my expense then please feel free!

So people you get the easy bit, putting your hands in your pockets, I however get the pleasure and pain of running (or trying) just over 13 miles!!
