Story

Hello everybody!

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

As you probably know, Caroline somewhat unexpectedly underwent surgery for bowel cancer in May 2011. It's been a very stressful time but she's making a great recovery. I wanted to do my bit to help so I have decided to run the Great Scottish half marathon this year in aid of Bowel cancer UK. It would be great if you could support me for slogging my guts out around the backstreets of Glasgow. Every contribution however small would be much appreciated.

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.
