Thank you for visiting my Sheffield Half Marathon Just Giving page in support of Student Scholarships

On 14 April 2019 I’ll be taking part in the Run for All Sheffield Half Marathon as part of the University of Sheffield team. We’re aiming to fund as many scholarships as possible.

Running a half marathon is horrible. I need some motivation to help me on my training runs in the wind, hail and rain when I'd rather be drinking tea and eating biscuits. Knowing I'm raising money for this great cause will help me to keep going in the last mile or two of the race when all I really want to do is stop.

I really appreciate any donation you can make and you know it will all go to the student scholarships fund.

We are fundraising for student scholarships to give as many students as possible the opportunity to study at the University of Sheffield. Scholarships are vital to reduce barriers for bright students from disadvantaged backgrounds, giving them the opportunity to have a university education. Students who are from lower-income backgrounds often have to turn to loans to cover the cost of living, which can leave these students with debts £50,000 or more. Fear of these debts can discourage both prospective undergraduates and bright graduates from pursuing further study.

So please support us by donating to this fantastic cause which will have a terrific impact for students, giving them the opportunity of a lifetime to study at Sheffield.

THANK YOU FOR SUPPORTING ME AND STUDENT SCHOLARSHIPS!
