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.

I have chosen to run for"Jeremiah's Journey" in the Plymouth Half Marathon on 30th May 2010, for the following reasons:

Jeremiah's Journey is made up of a team of individuals experienced in working with bereaved children and their parents or carers. They are able to provide information and support to children who have experienced, or are anticipating, the death of someone special to them. The main part of what they provide is a group programme for bereaved children and their families.

Jeremiah's Journey was a help to us as a family, when my father died in August 2007. They gave us information that helped us talk to our children in words they could understand, and be able to relate to the emotions and feelings they were going through. We are now calling on their support again as my father-in-law is dying, and this is a very difficult time for us all and we are grateful for the help and support we have received. Since writing this he has now passed away.

This charity gives invaluable time and support when children and their families need it most, so please give as generously as you can.

Thanks again for all your support.
