Story

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.

I will be running & raising money for children like Ella Frith and Ben O'Brien. Ella - the little girl in the pink coat in my photo - was diagnosed in February 2007 with an aggressive brain tumour & underwent three operations in a matter of days. Since then she has endured intensive courses of radiotherapy and chemotherapy in a bid to halt the cancer. Ben, a fanatical football fan, was diagnosed with an aggressive form of cancer after his mum noticed he was passing up playing his beloved football due to pain in his leg. He recently underwent surgery to remove a tumour in his leg bone. Surgeons also took away his shin and knee bone, which were replaced with prosthetic titanium rods.

Since December 2007 my gym - Sheffield Boxing Centre - has raised £23330 for Sheffield Children's Hospital & Ella's fund. It would be brilliant if we could raise enough money from the Berlin Marathon to take it over the £25K mark

So please dig deep and donate now.
