Story
Thank you for visiting my fundraising page. Thank you to those of you who have given so generously in the past.
I'm running again this year. My twelfth year in a row for Matthew's Friends - the charity who fund ketogenic diet research for children with epilepsy around the UK and provide invaluable support to parents via a 24 hour helpline and a great website www.matthewsfriends.org.
I've now run over 1000 Km for Matthew's Friends, including 13 competitive races in the past in the UK London, Bristol, Bath and Taunton. I've now moved to Australia where I have run in Alice Springs and am currently deciding on my next run. You can choose to give either per Km or per mile or as a one off.
Matthew's Friends are now also in Australia! The Matthews Friends Keto College Australia is being held in Melbourne on 30th & 31st March 2017. Bookings are open to medical professionals: doctors, dietitians, nurses interested or involved in the management of ketogenic therapy patients, for epilepsy, Glut1 and other neurological disorders.
As the miles accumulate, please donate. I can assure you that whatever you can afford to give will be more than matched by the support given in return to children with epilepsy.
Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Matthew's Friends gets your money faster and, if you’re a UK taxpayer, Justgiving makes sure 25% in Gift Aid, plus a 3% supplement, are added to your donation.
So please, if you're able, sponsor me now. Together we can help Matthews Friends and build on previous fundraising to reach our new target total during 2017. Thank you.
