Story

Thank you for visiting our fundraising page.

Despite the injuries incurred during training Wayne and Louise are confident they’ll be on the start line of the 2009 Flora London Marathon on the 26th April.

We were fortunate enough to get entry into the marathon through Flora, but in the true spirit of the marathon, we have decided that we would like to raise money for a charity that is very close to our hearts, the Starfish Greathearts Foundation.

Starfish Greathearts Foundation is an international development charity, aiming to bring life, hope and opportunity to children in SouthernAfrica who have been orphaned or made vulnerable by HIV/AIDS.  Everyone can make a very real difference to the lives of these children, no matter the size the contribution. 

Watch this youtube clip to hear the starfish story and what this great charity is all about. No matter how great the HIV/AIDS problem may seem, you can make a difference to a child in need, one at a time. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1wuSaNCIde4&NR=1

Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure and if you’re a taxpayer, Justgiving makes sure 25% in Gift Aid, plus a 3% supplement, are added to your donation. The money goes directly into the Starfish foundations bank account.

Think of us on the 26th April - start time is 9:45, or else we'll see you en route
