Hello
Thank you for checking out my sponsorship page! In April 2012 I’ll be completing my first marathon and hoping just to make it across the finish line! I will be completing a half marathon on 12th February 2012 to help with my training.
I'm hoping to raising more than £1000 for ParalympicsGB, by various means such as my JustGiving page, raffles, screen wash's, quiz night, bingo night and many more things (as much as I can fit in between training!)
ParalympicsGB is an incredible charity – they are just a team of 23 people - so hopefully that reassures you that the money raised doesn’t go to marketing campaigns or tv adverts but for supporting people with disability to compete in sports across Britain.
Not only do they help athletes be the best prepared they can be for the Paralympic Games but they also champion disability sports at a grass roots level, helping people to see past the disability and see the person.
The great news is that as I’m raising money for our company charity partner, and this means the money is matched pound for pound, so if I can raise my target of £1000, the charity will actually get £2000.
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.
Thanks
Charlotte xx
