My story

 

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I ran the Great North Run in memory of my mum; Mary Hawkes who died from Alzheimers in May 2006. I trained hard for several months as until a couple of months ago I had not done any exercise since I left school!

In June I 'ran' The Race for Life in Worcester, which was 5k...in 37 mins, so I needed to prepare for a 21k (13 mile) run on September 20th. It was quite an effort, but I managed to complete the run in 2 hours 27 mins. All my family completed the Great North Run; my husband Kevin and our three children (all in their 20s). It was a very hot day and a great atmosphere!

 

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.
