On Sunday 25th October, I completed the Cape Cod Marathon with my cousin Sasha. It's usual to ask for donations before the marathon takes place. This time, because my training had not been going as well as it should have, I decided to wait till I'd finished. I did, in 5 hours 33min and a lot of pain.

I would like to raise as much money as possible for my favourite charity, "Hope for Children" who support a number of projects both in the UK and around the world for disadvantaged children.

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.

Thanks for your support
