Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I am running Reading Half Marathon on 17th March 2013 for British Heart Foundation. The charity means a lot to me personally as both my Grandad and Uncle have undergone heart operations in the past few years and my other Grandad suffered a heart attack on New Year's Eve 2012. I would love to raise as much money as I can to support this brilliant charity and help fund vital research to improve care and services for those undergoing heart procedures and ultimately save as many lives as possible.

The training has been incredibly tough, its hurt a lot and there's been times where I've wanted to give up or skip a training session because of the bitterly cold weather or rain. Though the thought of raising money and helping a cause so close to my family has spurred me on and kept me going.

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 and donate now. Thank you so much :)
