Story

Thanks for visiting my fundraising page. It's always been an unfulfilled ambition of mine to complete the London Marathon. Most of you will know that last year I gave up smoking and said that if I succeeded I would enter. So I applied to represent Barts and I have been lucky enough to be selected to raise money for them :) You can read about what the charity does on the left of the page. I saw an NHS surgeon talk at an event about the difference the charity has made to the work she does and the care she can give to patients. I felt humbled by her words and wanted to help.  The most important thing is to finish but I do have a target time of 4hrs 30 mins....a bit ambitious maybe for a first try but there we are...it's all in the training:)

Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Barts and The London Charity gets your money faster and, if you’re a UK taxpayer, Justgiving makes sure 25% in Gift Aid, plus a 3% supplement, are added to your donation.

So please sponsor me and thanks so much in advance for your support :) xx
