Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
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.
On 26th September 2010 I will be running the Sony Ericsson Run To The Beat Half Marathon, to raise money for the NSPCC.
Run to the Beat is London’s Music Half Marathon, which provides live and recorded music around the course to inspire you as you run. The event starts and finishes at the O2, Greenwich.
I will be training and fundraising all summer for the 13.1 mile race. I have no personal best to beat or a time in mind, I am just running to have fun and raise as much money as possible for this great charity, so all donations of any amount are welcome.
Here is some info about the NSPCC:
The London Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children was founded in 1884. It changed its name to The National Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children (NSPCC) in 1889.
Its aim then was to protect children from cruelty, support vulnerable families, campaign for changes to the law and raise awareness about abuse.Today, the NSPCC is inspired by a belief that we can make a difference for all children – by standing up for their rights, by listening to them, by helping them when they need us and by making them safe.
Our vision is ending cruelty to children in the UK. We believe cruelty is preventable and that through having an inspirational vision we will achieve much greater success for children. www.nspcc.org.uk www.runtothebeat.co.uk Thank you again for helping me raise money for such an important charity Love Fiona xxx
