I am running the Birmingham Great Run to raise money for SANDS, the still birth and neonatal death charity.

In April this year two of my dearest friends had a beautiful baby boy, Finn, who was still born. I was honoured to be asked to say a prayer for Finn at his funeral, but would really like to raise some money to assist SANDS with the great work that they are doing.

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.

So please dig deep and donate now.
