Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I am running this half marathon in memory of my mum who sadly passed away on 25th October 2011.  Mum had a stroke in 2010 and with her steely determination, she fought back to resume her position as matriarch of our family! 

Having experienced at first hand the fear and distress of somebody who has had a stroke at a young age, this is a cause particularly close to my heart.

With Mothers Day the weekend after this race,  I am running this to show that her drive, tenacity, persistence and fortitude live on and that she will always be in our hearts.

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, empty out your pockets and piggy banks and please donate whatever you can, no matter how small, to this very worthwhile cause.

Thank you for your support and encouragement.
