Story
We are running a full 26 mile Marathon through the New Forest on the 26th September 2010.
Event website: http://www.nfma.org.uk/
We hope to raise as much money as possible for Barnardo's - one of the UKs largest children's charities (see charity summary to the left).
Dig deep, we aim to raise £20 for every mile run!
2 runners x 26 miles x £20 = £1040
Examples of what Barnardo's could do with your money:
£50 could buy 2 bubble tubes for a multi-sensory room, enabling disabled children to play.
£240 could pay for a year’s worth of support group sessions for 4 young people whose parents misuse drugs and alcohol.
£1080 could pay for the many counselling sessions a severely abused child needs to rebuild their life.
£5200 could cover the yearly cost of running two community youth clubs for children living in deprived areas.
