Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

After having completed 3 Half Marathons, I decided to set myself the challenge of running The London Marathon before I hit the big "30" so this is my final year to achieve this !!

I am running to raise money for an amazing charity namely The National Blind Children's Society (NBCS)

The National Blind Children’s Society (NBCS) was founded in 1995 by Roderick Carne, who himself is registered blind. His belief was that a child who has a visual impairment and their parents, having come to terms with the burden of a disability, should not also have to struggle in the search for help in gaining what is rightfully theirs.

In the last 14 years The National Blind Children's Society has become a leading provider of Five Key Services offering, advice and support for blind and partially sighted children, their families and carers across the United Kingdom but they still need more financial support to continue this great work.

 Please help this great cause by sponsoring me, no matter how small the amount it all counts.....plus you get to see me run a painful 26.3 miles!!

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.
