My story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

The rumours are true – as some of you may have heard on April 22 (and probably for the remainder of the year!) I will be running the 2012 London Marathon and raising money for the WHSmith Trust.

  

The WHSmith Trust uses its donations to support it's employees in their own local fundraising efforts - giving grants to all kinds of charities and good causes, as well as helping to improve literacy among people of all ages.

 

More information can be found on the Trust's website

http://www.whsmithplc.co.uk/corporate_responsibility/whsmith_trust/the_whsmith_charitable_trust/

 

  

Anyone who knows me – and even those of you who just know of me – will know that I don’t even run for the bus, so the 26.2 miles I’m forcing myself to do in April is very much a once in a lifetime thing (literally, as it will probably kill me!).

 

To that end – I’m asking you to take just five minutes and donate – any amount you can reasonably spare. Every little helps! 

 

You can keep up to date with how my training is going - among other things - by visiting my twitter page www.twitter.com/AlexJCall

 

 

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.

Keep donating, everyone - I will personally be matching 10% of the total raised and donating to Great Ormond Street Hospital.
