Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
I'm not entirely sure how I came to be running this marathon - it seemed like a good idea when I entered the ballot last April, little expecting to be offered a place! I'm hoping that the thought of raising some money for a good cause will keep me running when the going gets tough....
I decided to raise money for the National Children's Orchestra having seen the fantastic opportunities they offer. They aim to provide young people with a world-class foundation for orchestral performance and musicianship, regardless of background or ability to pay. They bring together hundreds of 7-13 year olds from across the country and offer them a life-changing experience – meeting like-minded people and being guided by top professional musicians. Of course, this isn't cheap, and they rely heavily on charitable donations.
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 - and I promise I'll run all the way!
Thanks!
