Story

Updated on Aug 19th 2012 at 6:07 PM from the JustGiving API

4 weeks today, please keep the sponsors coming, doing this means so much to me, thanks Gemma xx

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

Ive decided to do something ive never done before.....taking part in the great north run! This will be the furthest distance i will have ever ran and im doing this for my mum and a very old friend Mr Wayne hough.

We sadly lost my mum on the 23rd May 2007 just 2 days after finding out she had cancer, like many other people we didnt get as long as we wanted with her and waynes family got with him  Im doing this to help raise money so other people will get to spend some more time with their loved ones, something we didnt get the chance to do.

This is something close to my heart and many others, so please dig deep and help me raise lots of money to try and make a difference.

Thanks for taking the time to read this and for all the support

Gemma xxx
