Story

Oh you've stuumbled onto my Just Giving donation page, how nice.

Welcome traveller, like you I am also a vagrant, beating the cold hard streets in the pursuit, of a journey. Except my journey starts in Bath, and passes through Bath before going round it a bit before ending where I started.

Yes! My journey is a half marathon." What a noble thing to do" I hear you cry through the passage of time and the internet. Well thank you. "But why would you do this to yourself?" You holla in concern. Well, now you're just being sarcastic, it's only 13 miles! But to answer your question this is the reason(!):

They help older people enjoy their elder years through the medium of music (no, not like that scene in Derek). It actually is a fantastic charity, helping some of the most overlooked and lonely people in society have contact with a community, whilst reminding them that they are dearly cared for. Wouldn't you want the same if you were that age?

Now I'm doing my bit, so you do your bit and give, give, give!

'Golden Oldies' Charity which helps make life worth living for older people by bringing them together with music.
