MISSION COMPLETE

 

Thanks for taking the time to visit my Just Giving page in support of the Royal National Institute of Blind People charity.  I'm going to run in the 'BUPA Great North Run' a half marathon on the 18th September 2011 for this very hard working and worthwhile charity. This page has been set-up to cover donations to run the following races in 2011 (results so far in brackets):

The RNIB are a charity that I have always admired and made donations to so who are the RNIB?

 

RNIB is a national organisation with branches and services throughout the United Kingdom and Northern Ireland. RNIB's vision is of a world in which blind and partially sighted people enjoy the same rights, freedom, responsibilities and quality of life as people who are fully sighted.

 

RNIB's mission is to challenge blindness by empowering people who are blind or partially sighted, removing the barriers they face and helping to prevent blindness.
