Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
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.
I have decided to run the Run to the Beat half marathon in September to raise money for The Children's Trust; a national charity providing a unique combination of care, therapy and education to some of the UK's most severely disabled children, in a home-from-home environment. Some of these children have been born with disabilities and some have suffered a brain injury as the result of a tragic accident or illness, like meningitis. The Children's Trust has around 75 children in their care at any one time and they help hundreds of families every year in many ways.
With the money raised through charity events, their ambitions is to substantially increase the number of trained professionals who provide therapy to children with acquired brain injury in the local community, making a life changing difference to hundreds more children.
The Children's Trust is a very deserving cause and a charity particularly important to my family for their work helping and supporting my cousin Florence.
Any donation big or small would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you!
