Story
Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
On September the 4th 2011 I'm running the Middlesbrough Tees Pride 10k run for the Finlay Cooper Fund.
The charity was formed in August 2006 by ex-Middlesbrough footballer Colin Copper following the tragic loss of his son in January 2002.
Colin Cooper says:
"The Finlay Cooper Fund was formed in August 2006, by myself and my wife Julie.
We lost our son Finlay in January 2002, in a tragic choking accident and we wanted to do something positive in his name to try and help children's Charities.
So when I retired from playing football in 2006, we started to raise mioney in earnest and we have managed to raise over £50, 000 with the help of a lot of generous people. Donations have been given to three Children's Hospices, a children's diabetes trust and also a childrens Cancer Ward.
With the help of people like yourselves, we hope to help Children's Charities for many years to come, in Finlay's name!
Many Thanks

I'm cramming in some training before the run and would appreciate any donations you can spare for this amazing charity.
Thanks for looking,
