Matthew Harrison
Matts London Marathon for FLEET
Fundraising for Frontline Emergency Equipment Trust
Story
Thanks for taking the time to visit my Page.
I’ve never run a marathon before, but I think that turning forty is the perfect time to start! London is the obvious choice and it’s been on my bucket list for a while. So now’s as good a time as any.
The cold weather training is hard, not to mention the chaffing, but I have special running pants and ointment now, so it’s full steam ahead.
FLEET is an incredible charity that serves the whole of Cornwall and I’m excited to be running for them and raising funds to support the fantastic work that they do.
Your contribution, however big or small, will go directly towards saving lives. You can read more about FLEET below.
Thanks for your donation, I’m hugely grateful and humbled. Look out for me on your TV’s on April 28th!

More about FLEET.
Every day 250 people in the UK suffer a Sudden Cardiac Arrest, of these only 12 will survive. These are not just old and unfit people, the young and fit are just as at risk. The chance of survival depends on how quickly bystanders act.
It doesn't have to be this way, in areas where Public Access Defibrillators are installed the survival rate can be raised to 50%, thats 125 people instead of 12. Communities need to be aware of how to spot a sudden cardiac arrest and what to do next.
FLEET are dedicated to supplying a network of defibrillators across Cornwall and creating communities confident in how to use them, so that more lives can be saved.
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. So it's the most efficient way to donate - saving time and cutting costs for the charity.
