Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

After watching some friends complete the Eden Marathon last year in great style, Paul and I made a pact to enter the Half Marathon this year.  This has meant upping my usual 3 mile adhoc runs to growing distances on a more regular basis (thanks to Jan at Fitness 4 U St Columb for the training schedule!).

I would like to raise money for Great Ormond Street Hospital to thank them for treating my little nephew Craig for a rare type of cancer when he was little more than a year old.  He is now coming on for 3 and a happy, cheeky little fella who has the most infectious laugh!

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 Great Ormond Street Hospital 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 donate now.

We are Great Ormond Street Hospital Charity. We stop at nothing to help give seriously ill children childhoods that are fuller, funner and longer. Because we believe no childhood should be lost to illness.
