<p>&pound;7,500 is enough money to put one child with Cerebral Palsy through a year of conducive education at the Dame Vera Lynn Trust School for Parents in Five Oaks, near Billingshurst.</p> <p>Having started running in 2010, I decided the time was right to tackle my first marathon, and such a huge Sussex event should raise money for a Sussex-based charity.</p> <p>The Dame Vera Lynn Trust does not attract the exposure of other, larger charities, but their work is just as vital. And after attending one of the Trust's fundraising events last summer, it touches peoples lives, not only in the Horsham and Sussex area but across the entire South East.</p> <p>Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure.
