Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

And an extra big thank you to Northumberland Business Services Ltd who have generously donated £500 (£100 per event completed in 2011) in support of me and my efforts.

My life has been touched by Bowel Cancer on more than one occassion so once I caught the running bug and mates suggested running in organised events I thought it was a great opportunity to raise some money to help the clever scientist types continue their research into fighting this and other cancers,

This leg of my journey is the Bupa Great North Run and the organisers describe it sipmly as; 

  • THE most iconic half-marathon on the planet (nuff sed!)
  • The next bit is the JustGiving Patter.

    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.
