The charity runs several projects aimed at giving those with learning disabilities more independence by finding housing, jobs, fun activity days, and enabling access to sports facilities. They also run the Brighton and Hove Special Olympics. So I decided to get training and run the Brighton Marathon to raise money for Grace Eyre&rsquo;s sporting activity projects, which allow people of all ages and abilities to have fun bowling, swimming and playing football.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">&nbsp;</span></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; line-height: normal; margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;"><span style="font-family: &amp;quot;Verdana&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;sans-serif&amp;quot;; background: white; color: black; font-size: 10pt; mso-fareast-font-family: &#39;Times New Roman&#39;; mso-bidi-font-family: &#39;Times New Roman&#39;; mso-fareast-language: EN-GB;"><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">&nbsp;</span></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; line-height: normal; margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;"><span style="font-family: &amp;quot;Verdana&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;sans-serif&amp;quot;; background: white; color: black; font-size: 10pt; mso-fareast-font-family: &#39;Times New Roman&#39;; mso-bidi-font-family: &#39;Times New Roman&#39;; mso-fareast-language: EN-GB;"><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">There si aslo another way<span style="font-family: &amp;quot;Arial&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;sans-serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 10pt; mso-fareast-font-family: Calibri; mso-fareast-language: EN-GB; mso-fareast-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-ansi-language: EN; mso-bidi-language: AR-SA;"> how you can donate to our charity via&nbsp;- <strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><span style="color: red;">JUSTTEXTGIVING &ndash; to donate text EYRE11&pound;2/&pound;5/&pound;10 to 70070</span></span></strong></span>&nbsp;</span></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; line-height: normal; margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;"><span style="font-family: &amp;quot;Verdana&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;sans-serif&amp;quot;; background: white; color: black; font-size: 10pt; mso-fareast-font-family: &#39;Times New Roman&#39;; mso-bidi-font-family: &#39;Times New Roman&#39;; mso-fareast-language: EN-GB;">&nbsp;</span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; line-height: normal; margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;"><span style="font-family: &amp;quot;Verdana&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;sans-serif&amp;quot;; background: white; color: black; font-size: 10pt; mso-fareast-font-family: &#39;Times New Roman&#39;; mso-bidi-font-family: &#39;Times New Roman&#39;; mso-fareast-language: EN-GB;">Please sponsor me to help Grave Eyre continue in their excellent work and help everyone enjoy the social, competitive and fun side of sport.
