Story

Thank you for visiting my page. The heat of the 2007 London Marathon did not put me off and I am back for another 26.2 miles of punishment. Although I was fortunate enough to obtain a ballot place this time, it would be shame not to use the opportunity to raise some money for a worthy cause. The charity I have chosen is the Make-A-Wish Foundation.

The Make-A-Wish Foundation grants magical wishes to children and young people fighting life-threatening illnesses.  It has no cures to offer but, during desperate times when there seems to be no hope, Make-A-Wish steps in and provides positive and uplifting relief. Most of all, a wish granted brings a time of magic and joy for the special children and families it serves.

Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Make-A-Wish Foundation UK 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 sponsor me now!
