Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I was lucky enough to receive a place for last year's London Marathon through my running club, but raised sponsorship for a charity called Wellbeing of Women. Our good friend had received her place through the charity, a cause which she chose after the bitter disappointment of failed attempts at IVF. I was glad to help her reach her target which she well and truly exceeded.

This year the charity has kindly let me take one of their places. I saw this as an opportunity to help raise funds for this worthwhile charity working hard in areas such as infertility, miscarriages, gynaecological cancers and babies dying at or near birth. I'm sure all of us would be able to connect with someone who could have benefited from research in these areas. Also, it gave me the opportunity to run in this great event again, for which I am really grateful.

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.

I would be so grateful for any sponsorship you can give.

Dave.
