Story

<p><span style="color: #0000ff;">I am lucky enough to have a place in this year's London Marathon. On April 22nd, I will be <strong>running</strong> further than I ever have before - <strong>26.2 miles</strong>(!), and by then I need to <strong>raise</strong> more than I ever have before - &pound;1500 yes <strong>&pound;1500</strong>!!</span></p> <p><span style="color: #000080;">You've probably heard of <strong>RNIB</strong>, who support almost 2 million people in the UK living with serious sight loss. I will be running for <strong>Action for Blind People</strong>, part of RNIB, a charity offering visually impaired people help with many aspects of everyday life which become suddenly more challenging following loss of their sight; like finding a job, applying for benefits, housing and local service issues, aids and adaptations, and breaks/holidays.</span></p> <p><span style="color: #000080;">Do see their website for more info on the invaluable service this charity provides <a href="http://www.actionforblindpeople.org.uk/">http://www.actionforblindpeople.org.uk/</a></span></p> <p><span style="color: #0000ff;"><strong>AND PLEASE DONATE SOMETHING, WHATEVER YOU CAN; I AND THEY APPRECIATE YOUR SUPPORT IMMENSELY!</strong></span></p> <p><span style="color: #000080;">Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving &ndash; they&rsquo;ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they&rsquo;ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer.</span></p>
