<p>Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.</p>
<p>In just under 65 days I will be running 26 miles and 385 yards in the London marathon for <a href="http://www.stclarehospice.org.uk/">St Clare Hospice</a>.</p>
<p>Please help me raise money for this amazing charity and the work that they do. </p>
<p>If like me you have lost someone you care about, you will know how important it is that end of life is not a time of pain, fear, loneliness or anxiety. Hospice care is so important because everyone has the right to die pain-free with dignity and with families receiving the necessary support to allow this to happen.</p>
<p><strong>Hospice care changes lives - Help add life to days</strong></p>
<p><strong>"There are few certainties in life except death. Whilst we cannot do anything to avoid it, there is plenty that can be done to ensure people have the right to a good death. St Clare Hospice is about exactly that.</strong></p>
<p><strong>Our population is growing older and patients are being diagnosed far earlier and younger. Please help St Clare Hospice continue to deliver the very best specialist, palliative and end of life care.</strong></p>
<p>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.
