Thanks for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page.

Tess Archer was a very brave little girl.

For the last 15 months of her life she fought against a terrible and cruel condition, Leukodystrophy. With the love and support of her Mum and Dad and her two sisters Evie and Ella she kept on fighting right to the end.

As parents, Saff and Jill could not have done any more for Tess. Their love and care for her was ceaseless and they bore their terrible tragedy with amazing fortitude. Tess showed us what courage truly is and she taught us to fight and to keep on going.

On the 16th December 2011, Tess fell asleep for the last time.

This is where we need your help. By running the Brentwood half marathon we are hoping to raise much needed funds for SNAP, a wonderful childrens charity based in Brentwood in Essex. SNAP provides help and support to families who have children aged 0 - 25 years with wide ranging special needs and disabilities. Any donation, large or small will make a massive difference so please give what you can.  

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 - we raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

So please dig deep and donate now.
