Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I should have been running the Brighton Marathon on Sunday 19th April and then the London Marathon on Sunday 26th April but, due to the Covid-19 lockdown, they have been rescheduled to later in 2020. I will hopefully be running in both events.

The Samaritan mission to support those in distress is even more important in these difficult times with so many people in self-isolation and unable to be with their loved ones. I want to make sure that Samaritan volunteers continue to be available 24/7 to provide support to anyone who needs it.

So I will be dressing up in my Green Telephone and covering the marathon distance on Sunday 19th and the Sunday 26th April on my patio. I have mapped out a 20m circuit - so 2110 laps!

Please donate if you can and support Samaritans and thank you!
