Edinburgh Marathon Festival Full Marathon 2013 · 26 May 2013 ·
Hello!
We are running the Edinburgh Marathon on the 26th May 2013 for Macmillan Cancer charity as they are helping Emma's Dad (Bill) bravely fight Oesophageal Cancer.
A side effect of Bill's treatment is that he has now lost his voice which could be permenant, on discussing this with Macmillan we have found an amazing piece of kit called a lightreader which help people like Bill to communicate, we have also found out that there is only one of these lightreaders in the whole of Herefordshire to go around everybody affected by this terrible side effect, therefore we would really love to raise money to help to fund the purchase of another one, which costs approximately £400.
We are also entering the Forest of Dean half Marathon on the 24th March 2013 to help prepare for Edinburgh.
All donations are greatfully recieved, Cheers!!
