My story

Thank you for visiting my fundraising page. Please dig deep and sponsor me online.

My name is Dedj Leibbrandt and I’m running the London Marathon. I was born in S. Africa under apartheid and left in 1979 because of the unjust regime. Raising money for Tools for Self Reliance is a small thing that I can do to give something back to Africa ’s indigenous peoples.

I’m not an athlete, nor am I running for a supersonic finishing time. I am a 47 year old woman on an extremely gruelling training programme. It gets longer each weekend. I don’t want to moan about the hills and speed training - but I will if it will encourage you to sponsor me J.

When I am not running I am a self employed Medical Herbalist treating people with herbs rather than drugs.

Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Tools For Self Reliance will receive your money faster and, if you are a UK taxpayer, an extra 28% in tax will be added to your gift at no cost to you.

So please sponsor me now!

Many thanks for your support.
