Story
Thanks for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page.
As you know, numerous provinces in Turkey have suffered severe damage from three earthquakes on 6th and 20th February.
The horrendous loss of life and the suffering of survivors is unimaginable.
On March 5th, we will take part in the Runtalya running event in Antalya. Barry will run the marathon (26.2 miles - 42 kms) and I will run the 10k.
The scale of this disaster is immense and whilst any bit of help we can give seems like a tiny drop in the ocean, we just want to do our best to help the recovery process in any way we can.
We do this event every year but this year, we want it to benefit others.
We're running to raise money for Turkey Mozaik Foundation Earthquake Appeal. They are UK-based and award grants to NGOs who are working on the ground in affected areas.
If you want to look them up online, you will see that they are transparent with their donations, updating regularly - you will see where the funds are going and what those funds are being used for.
We know people have already given so much in donating goods, funds and time but if you can find a few extra pennies to support the vital work of all these amazing people, that would be just lovely.
There's so much to be done over the coming weeks, months and years.
We'll be making our own donation and also putting one foot in front of the other around the streets of Antalya on the 5th (Barry will, of course, be doing a good few more steps than I will be!)
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. So it's the most efficient way to donate - saving time and cutting costs for the charity.
