Story

DUCKMAN'S PLAN

You will remember me saying that at some stage I would raise some money for charity - well here it is (at last)...

Some of you may recall that I did some sprinting at school, but turned my nose up at the longer distances… and early indications from training are proving my point! BUT as I have turned 40 this year I think it’s about time I made the effort… So here goes and there’s no better way to motivate myself than to agree to a substantial sponsorship target.

Your help is so very much appreciated!

Thank you for choosing to support Children in Crisis

WHY SUPPORT CHILDREN IN CRISIS

At Children in Crisis we believe that every child has the right to an education to enable them to fulfil their potential to live positive, healthy lives and contribute to the development of the societies in which they live.

Imagine what it would be like not going to school or even being able to write your own name? 

Unfortunately for 77 million children worldwide they do not have access to an education. Children in Crisis is working to change this by working with local communities to provide educational opportunities as a route out of poverty for the world’s most vulnerable children. Visit www.childrenincrisis.org for more information.
