Story

Thanks so much for visiting my justgiving page.

On the 22nd April I will crazily be attempting the London Marathon for Marie Curie Cancer Care. The course involves me running 26 very difficult miles.

I would really appreciate if you could spare some money to help me raise money for this great cause.  Marie Curie means a lot to me as I lost my grandparents and my lovely friend Paul to cancer.

Marie Curie Nurses provide free nursing care to cancer patients and those with other terminal illnesses in their own homes.  They are also at the forefront of cancer research. They focus on how the cells of our bodies should normally operate; what causes these processes to go wrong, leading to cancer; and how better treatments can be developed.

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.

Thank you!
Rachel
