On 13th April I completed the London Marathon in 3 hours 56 minutes (the evidence can be viewed online at www.london-marathon.co.uk/site/)

Thank you to all of those who have so generously supported me, I'm relieved that your faith in me wasn't misguided!

I was running for Help the Hospices a national charity that supports the hospice movement. Last year it was one of the charities supported by the Times Christmas appeal and there are a series of links to articles below which give some information about Help the Hospices and outline stories from some of the hospices that the charity supports. There is also more information about the charity at www.helpthehopsices.org.uk

The hospice movement touches hundreds of thousands of lives every year, and it's not too late if you would like to add some money to my sponsorship total.

Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Help the Hospices will receive your money faster and, if you are a UK taxpayer, an extra 28% in tax will be added to your gift at no cost to you.

So please sponsor me and Help the Hospices.

Many thanks for your support.
