Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page!

I'm running the Royal Parks half marathon for a couple of reasons, mainly to see if I can actually do it, but also through The Arrows Group Foundation. 

The Arrows Group Foundation is a registered charity on a mission to support children with disadvantaged backgrounds through their childhood and education. 

This year we're fundraising to support a second home in India, and helping to provide an education for even more children. We have a team of 7 running the Royal Parks Half Marathon and we would really appreciate any help to reach our target of £5000!

I've never run further than 5000m before now, so jumping to 21,097 off the bat is going to be a bit of a challenge. I've been told the run is horrendously painful, but I think it's about time I started giving back a little more, without sounding too pretentious! 

Here's how your donations will help us in our mission:

£25 would provide 1 month of school fees in a private school, or 1 year of medical expenses

£50 would provide school books for 1 year, or a meal out for all 12 children

£100 would cover a fun trip out (film and food) for all 12 children and 3 careers

... and the following amounts would help to support the Skill Development Centres to improve their employability:

£6 would help to cover the running cost of a Skill Development Centre

£15 would pay for a 3 month Certificate in Basic Computer Knowledge

£30 would pay for a 6 month Diploma in Computer Application 

£60 would pay for a 12 month Advanced Diploma in Computer Application

Thank you for your support, we really appreciate everything you can donate.
