Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my Just Giving page.

 

26/27 miles easy A! May be may be not? It is only five hours of my life, may be six? One of the biggest tests' of my life - the second being getting married a few months later (good way to get in to the suit).

 

Now to the point - if you look at this page and think na, no time no money, think again! I worked with people with learning difficulties for almost 9 years and saw first-hand what could be achieved with the right support. It is amazing how easy it is to make a real difference to someone's life and Action for Kid's needs our help to continue investing in the younger generations - just think a pound or two could make such a difference to so many peoples life right on your own doorstep. Please if you’re in any doubt check out there site:  www.actionforkids.org

 

Now I know we all are feeling the pinch - petrol prices, food and bills.... A pound or two or more (please) one off will help me achieve what I am aiming to do. If for instance all my Facebook friends gave £2 that would be £1800, not going to happen but if your here think as a one off what can you give to help disabled Kids?

 

What am I putting in to this, for your donation (1p- £££) well I am training to complete 26/27 mile, I am working full time, I am renovating our house, helping plan a wedding and working toward a degree. I already have a hectic schedule but getting ready for another major challenge and helping raise money for a worthy cause is what’s required to give something back (as well as leaving 27 miles of sweat behind). Join the journey and see a smile brought to someones face @ a bog off price.. hehe!

Do what you can please! (if you have an idea for a fundraiser or other idea that may help please get in touch - any ideas welcomed)
