Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

My name is Lynn Carpenter and I am an Assistant Pastor at Carshalton Baptist Church. 

During the last few years I have put on 4 stone (56 Ibs) in weight and I really needed the motivation to lose it, so I have decided that my motivation comes from helping others. With this in mind I am starting a fundraiser for 2 charities. This page is for LifeLink with Valley Life Trust and there is an additional JustGiving page for Sutton Night Watch helping to feed the vulnerable and the homeless in the Sutton area.

My goal is to lose 56 Ibs commencing from September 8th 2020 and finishing by 28th September 2021. My Slimming World consultant Sarah Blight in Carshalton has agreed to support me on my journey (she's fab!).

I have supported LifeLink with Valley Life Trust projects over the past 14 years. I have personally seen how LifeLink projects have not only transformed individual lives, but also families and communities.

LifeLink brings hope to women in Rwanda by providing training to single mothers to help them get off the streets and to feed their children. LifeLink also provide care, food and education for orphans and enable widows to set up micro businesses to be self sufficient, giving them independence and self esteem.

Rwanda is one of the poorest countries in the world, and I am asking you today to sponsor me with my assurance that every penny you give will go towards helping LifeLink with Valley Life Trust to continue their awesome work and in helping them you will be helping me to Eat Less and Feed More.
